Finally!

I got all the Christmas tree decorations put away. I finally figured out why I was so ornery about getting it done: This is the 3rd year that I have had to separate them. Every year my kids get ornaments from their grandparents and others. With 3 weddings over the last 3 Christmases, I've separated them out to give to the kids for their own trees. I had to do this for Natalie this year. So now her box is done and ready to give so she can use it next year to decorate. It just takes more time, that's all and I wasn't ready to set it aside to do. Now it's all wrapped up safely and ready to go up in the garage. I'll have Mike help me since Duff's back is finally on the mend and I don't want it to get tweaked!

Gosh, my dining room table looks beautiful!

I need to remember to get some new ornaments starting next fall. My supply is down by half, now! Someone please remind me come October, okay?
