I'm thinking a great amount of this can be eliminated. But every year it is the same grind. But I think I like it. About this time of year (Before New Years) I reflect my year and wonder what my family is about. And I know!!! Lots of things. I enjoy what my kids do and I Like things just right!!
We have 3 trees this year. Our main tree has 20 years of collected ornaments. I would love to do a themed tree. You know the kind...Red and gold balls only. White lights, and matching wrapping paper. OK I am just kidding!!!I am years away from that stuff. I am pretty sure the princess wrapping paper will be around for awhile!!!
This is decorated with Sponge bob ornaments!!!
I am not sure how many boxes of decorations I have but I must say Chritmastime is the best!!!
This silver tree is so funny. Frank brought it home last year . He bought it on clearance. It reminded him of his Grandma. I thought it was hideous. But... I let it go. Then I cam back from Vegas and it was put up in my family room. Witha few ornaments I'm thinking it is growing on me. What do you think?

I can completely relate. I am the mother of 9, with 7 children still home. I have always tried to decorate upstairs and downstairs multiple trees, lights, the works. i have put more pressure on myself over the years. I have 3 children with birthdays between thanksgiving and christmas. I usually do tons of baking. I am trying to reign in my need for "perfection" and just enjoy the many events with my family this year. We have so many church, 4-H, winter recital and birthday parties, I am going to take a deep breathe and exhale.
That silver tree is freakin hilarious...totally something my hubby would do too. It would grow on me too. Miss ya...call me!!
