We began decorating for Christmas this past weekend…so far we just have the advent wreath and tree up, but we still have more to go. Shane is waiting for the sub-arctic temperatures to take a break so that he can put the lights up outside. I think it should be in the 40s tomorrow, so maybe the warmer weather (and I mean that relatively) will get him outside and motivated to climb up on the ladder to put the lights on the roof.
So far one thing I have noticed that is different this year is Trevor’s reaction to all things Christmas. Everything seems so magical to him—the lights, the sounds…everything. He loves to go into the kitchen and dance to the Christmas music that I have constantly playing in there…every morning as soon as he gets to the living room after running down the hallway he lets out a big “OOOOO!” when he spots the tree. As the holidays this year are turning out to be so much more magical for Trevor, the holidays are becoming more and more meaningful for Shane and I.
With all the cheer that has taken residence at our house, I am ready to settle in for the evening and take care of my favorite holiday activity—Christmas cards! Hope the holiday cheer is taking up residence at your house too!
