Deck The Halls ...


Well ... It is my favortie time of year!! I couldn't even wait until after Thanksgiving to put up the tree so I decided I would post it after Thanksgiving instead. I love Christmas, everything about it makes me happy. Not only do we get to spend time with our loved ones but we get to feel happiness all month long, although for me I start as soon as I can.
Unfortunately Tony and I weren't able to go home for Thanksgiving. It was still a great day, which we didn't spend alone. We went on base and had an amazing feast with the branch and whoever else showed up. We ended up with about 70 people there which was very nice. Since we weren't able to make it home ... we are going home for Christmas. We are both very excited with this and grateful that we are able to make the trip.



We weren't sure if we would get a tree, knowing that we would just have to pack it up with all our stuff, but we found a cute little (3 ft) tree which is in a pot! Next we had to decide how to decorate. Thinking of color schemes we could do that we would both agree on. We went out looking for ornaments and found some great black and silver ones! I love the way our tree turned out! Man I love Christmas!
