Happy Holidays!!
This is certainly one of my favorite days of the year! But it wasn't until I had children that I really cared about creating traditions....and ensuring that the base of the tree was packed with presents. One of the assumptions that I get frequently around this time of year? "Your Christmas tree must be stunning with gorgeous ornaments and ribboning!" Yes, I do get to decorate plenty of Christmas trees with lots of frill....for our clients. However, in my house, the family Christmas tree is one of those places that I give complete reign to my kids.
We make our own popcorn garlands and the garlands are never wrapped around the tree they way they are "supposed" to be. There are usually more candy canes hung on one side of the tree than the other side. The ornaments tend to make their way to the floor and to different rooms in the house. The tree is usually crooked. Sometimes, I find random toys tucked into the tree.
And I LOVE it! The tree gets to be a true representation of my kids and they get to call it their own. So, if you ask me, I have the best Christmas tree ever! And I get it every year!
Best wishes to you and yours this holiday season!
Yours truly,
Joanna
