Christmas season is here again. It seems it comes earlier and earlier each year. For stores it is probably about the money but for me I get excited because it means time with family. This year will be even more special because my dad will be home after over a month in Haiti (he is working there as a missionary) and my brother will be on leave from the marines (he was not able to take time off for Thanksgiving).
My dad asked if the hubby and I will do Christmas at our place so we will have a full house but I am sure everyone will have a great time.
We already have the tree set up and I am so excited because it is my first real tree! It smells so good and we only paid $35 for it. We always used artificially trees growing up which never bothered me but I am excited to have a real one this year, I just hope it lasts until Christmas! We have been trying to remember to water it everyday and so far so good.
The other night Eddie and I just sat in the living room looking at the tree and listening to Christmas music. It was really quiet and nice. We don't get to spend a ton of time together with me in school and him working so I really enjoy the times we do have.
Looking forward to all the good will that this time of year brings out in people. Hopefully people can remember to spread that around all year long as well!
