We have a tradition in our house to decorate for Christmas on the day after Thanksgiving because Troy has the day off and I can almost guarantee that he is going to be in town. I don't have any other day I can say that about. I wait until after thanksgiving to do anything Christmas (except shopping of course!) so it is exciting to get to hear our favorite old Christmas music and finally listen to any new music we didn't have last year. 
Here is our living room before the Christmas makeover. I always take a couple of pictures of the process. 
Troy sets up the tree and the kids and I take over from there!

The Tree decorated in all its glory! I know that most people have the perfect Christmas tree with ornaments perfectly placed and all in matching and coordinated colors. I like to see the ornaments that the kids have made me over the years and let them see how they have grown. It is what we in my family like to call a memory tree.
The Piano
The side table/sewing machine. ;-]
This is mine and Troy's first ornament. It has been hanging on the Christmas tree at our house for 14 years now. (ahhhhh!)
I thought this was a cute picture because you can see me and Owen in the ornament. I have the camera in my hand (obviously!) and Owen is holding a red ornament in his.
