merry, merry to you!

I love Christmas ... growing up, my mom was adament that we couldn't begin "celebrating" Christmas until the day after Thankgiving. Our tradition was to listen to the Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton Christmas album the entire 5 1/2 drive home from Carmel. I think my dad enjoyed it more than any of us!!!

So this year, the day after Thankgving, I decorated the house for Christmas. Something about a decorated home makes everything seem better ...

Even Annie is in a better mood ... she likes to lay under, on, and next to the Christmas tree at all times. So from our house to yours, Happy Holidays!
