Christmas Tree 2012

This year, we decided to do a new style on the tree - all white and gold and silver. I really like the way it looks. It is a little different without all the kids' homemade ornaments from throughout the years, but I am enjoying the change.

Our tradition for many years has been to put the tree up and decorate it on the weekend after Thanksgiving. It was a special blessing this year to have all three of my children help decorate it. I am sure that now that they are adults, it will be unusual to have them all home to decorate the tree together. For that I am truly thankful.
