Spending the day or weekend engulfed in Christmas decorations is a favorite event for my daughter Ally and me.  We fill our house with decorations and relive past holidays.  It is our day, give or take a boy or two.  It is the one day that we do not argue and that we are one.  For this reason I will always cherish the process for pulling out, hanging, and arranging our family’s Christmas decorations.

My Christmas Decorations

• I believe in putting up the Christmas tree on Thanksgiving weekend and filling the tree with as many Christmas ornaments as it can hold.
• I believe in small white lights and lots of silver ribbon.
• I believe you can have artificial trees, but you must fill your house with pine scented candles.
• I believe in an angel at the top of the Christmas tree and ornaments that are thirty years old hanging along the side.
• I believe that ever Christmas tree should have at least a dozen birds hidden for children to find.
• I believe in wrapping a few Christmas presents early, so the Christmas tree doesn’t look or feel lonely.
• I believe there is nothing as pretty as a Christmas tree at night, sparkling in the dark, as children lay in front gazing in amazement.
• I believe Christmas decorations should be both beautiful and sentimental.
• I believe my Snow Village Christmas set is as pretty as it could be and that each broken piece holds a memory.
• I believe Christmas brings out the best in us
• I believe in Santa Claus.
