trimming the tree


One of my favorite parts of the first holiday in our own place has been getting our own Christmas tree. A few weeks ago we picked up a tree at a holiday tree lot on Roncesvalles and D carried it the ten blocks back to the house. We spent the afternoon with spiked cocoa - listening to holiday music and hanging lights and ornaments While some people prefer a "designer" tree, I'm all for filling a tree with meaningful ornaments that bring back happy memories.  big fan of a tree filled with ornaments that have special meanings and that fill you with happy memories. We had put away a few extra ornaments when my parents took down their tree last year, and we've added quite a few that we've picked up recently. A fun first year of a tradition that will continue for years to come.
