So we have sort of a new tradition and that is that on the day or two after Thanksgiving, we put up the christmas tree. So today was that day.
I didn’t take any images during the tree decorating but I did get some after we finished.
We have a small house and lots of stuff. These two scenarios don’t make for alot of room inside the walls. So we have had to get creative on how we decorate and move stuff around. So for the christmas tree, we decided that since we don’t use the front door much (we use the garage as our main entrance), we would just setup the tree in the foyer. It’s perfect because it’s sort of out of the way and it has plenty of room for the tree.
Also a couple years back Shalon and I had gone to Macy’s, the day after Christmas, and we loaded up on some AWESOME white ornaments that they were practicly giving away. I absolutely LOVE special deals and what better way to rack up on christmas ornaments than the day after Christmas. So we started out with an entirely white Christmas tree the first year that we used those ornaments and since then have incorporated a few maroonish colored bulbs and a ribbon/bow instead of a star or angel at the top.
I know you probably don’t care about all that but with Shalon and I being newly married, getting rid of all the decorations that were handed down to us and starting with new decorations was a big deal for us.
OK.. so with that said, check out our tree!!
