    Hello :o

    We're putting ours up tomorrow (1st) as we're really excited this year! :D I feel really settled this time, after moving and getting wed last year...so i think thats why im so happy and excited :o

    My sister is putting hers up the 2nd weekend, and my mom leaves it as long as possible until my sister and I end up dragging it out and helping her decorate! (she says after doing it for so many years, 5 kids later....the novelty is wearing thin lol..she needs encouragement!!!!)

    Happy Christmas!!!! :j

    Ours will go up on the 21st as that's my first day off work for Christmas and the kid's last day at school so we'll all do them together after school. They always come down on 12 th night, which is also my birthday!!
