O Christmas Tree....

... O Christmas Tree, how lovely are your branches. Yes, you guessed it- last night, we put up our first Christmas Tree! Hayden's parents brough it back for us and we decorated it last night. It was so fun talking about our own family traditions as we decorated the tree-for example, Megan always does the lights from top to bottom, and Hayden and me always do the lights from bottom to top at our houses. It is amazing to be how we all form our own traditions as we move along through life. Forming out own traditions as roomates is exciting and shows me just how much I treasure the traditions my family has at Christmas and throughout the year!

Our apartment now feels like Christmas to me, which is ever so comforting! It has that smell and the lights just make things so much happier and brighter! So, the coundown begins... 22 days till Christmas!
