I am thankful everyday to finally be back in a bigger house that allows us some space to work with. When the holidays roll around, I am EXTRA thankful for our extra space. We can finally decorate and we're no longer constrained to a little 3 foot tree on an end table.
Oh, and we have a fireplace to hang the stockings!! Woohoo!
Taryn is going to be FUN this Christmas. She LOVES Christmas trees. When we drive around town and people have Christmas lights, she oohs and aahs and says "Look, another one another one!!!" Watching her eyes light up when the tree does could really warm the heart of any ol' anti-Christmas scrooge! Seeing the excitement of the holidays through a child's eyes really makes it so much more fun!
We bought Lee's parents pre-lit tree. Man, those things are convenient! It is huge, but fortunately my grandma borders on hoarding Christmas decorations from all 81 years of her life, so she had some to share. When the tree was decorated Taryn said "Oh, mommy, it's beautiful." And looking at it through eyes, I have to agree!
