Christmas Decorations

Tonight we put up our Christmas tree. We let the kids decorate it. They could hardly wait for us to put it up and put the lights first. They had been begging us to get the tree put up. For some reason, kids like Christmas.

Their mom invited them to spend Christmas with them in Washington State. Joe and I began wondering what Christmas was going to be like for us. I was a little uncomfortable with just he and I sitting by the Christmas tree on Christmas morning. There is just something about Christmas that requires children on Christmas morning.

We thought it would be the best idea ever to spend Christmas with Mike and Shan'l. We invited ourselves to their house for Christmas so at least we could have a fun Christmas too. They welcomed the idea with so much enthusiasm. We felt so welcome and began looking forward to it with great anticipation.

Joe got me a stocking and wrote my name on it all fancy.

See what has become of us since I moved in?
