This weekend we officially kick-started our Holiday Season!

1. I decorated our tree. One of my favorite things about Christmas is putting my ornaments on the tree. I date all of my ornaments and write the name of the person who gave it to me on them . It’s so fun to take them out of the box and remember all of the memories that each one brings.

2. Curt put our lights up outside. He had a few setbacks (such as forgeting to leave the end that plugs in near the outlet) but it looks great!

3. I had my first white chocolate peppermint latte this year – AND got to try the eggnog coffee.

4. I got to wear my new winter boots. Yay! It’s finally cold enough :)

With all the fun commercial stuff that Christmas brings let’s not forget the true meaning of Christmas.

5. I also put my Nativity Scene up (which my mother-in-law gave it to me and it’s so beautiful) and prayed.
