Mom, are we going to wait until Christmas Eve to put up the tree?” Xavier asked the other day.
I told him that was an old European tradition and asked if he’d like to observe it.
“No,” came the reply “I was just wondering why the tree wasn’t up yet.”

So with a bit of nagging, up went the (artificial and pretty much too small) tree complete with the beer lights (get it – light beer?) and the new angel topper (I liked our old one, Eddie said).

The house is decorated, gifts are amassing under the tree, we wait to celebrate the Nativity on Sunday.

Merry Christmas!

Congrats on getting the tree up. I'm sure the beer lights are the perfect touch. ;)
