This past weekend we finished putting the final decorations on our Christmas tree!! Christmas is my FAVORITE time of year. Darin and I went to a Christmas tree farm in Jacksonville, NC with my sister, her husband and my nephew to get our Christmas tree. Ever since I can remember, my family would pile into the car and go cut down our Christmas tree every year. We would all usually disagree on which tree would be best. I would always insist on getting a tree that was way too tall and way too fat...but I usually won :). So now that we have our own house with tall ceilings, I can get really BIG Christmas trees!! The one we got this year isn't as fat as I would like but it was pretty so I settled.
Right after Thanksgiving, Darin and his brother Ryan put up our outside Christmas lights. Darin is very particular about his outside lights. They have to be a certain kind, they have to perfectly spaced and they must be straight. Umm...yeah...I just let him handle that and I stay out of it! I just love it when people decorate outside for Christmas. One of my favorite things to do on Christmas Eve is to ride around to the different neighborhoods and look at the Christmas lights! I LOVE IT!!!
