Deck the halls indeed

Christmas trees make me happy.

Putting up Christmas trees and decorating them while you're sipping hot chocolate and Mariah Carey's singing in the background? That always puts a smile on my face. 

Always.

So after an especially bad week in the psych ER, Martin and I went and bought us a tree and all the trimmings.

Who cares if we put it up five days before Thanksgiving? If Starbucks can start handing out red holiday cups on November 1st, and KOST has been playing nonstop Christmas carols for the past week and a half, I say I can put up my Christmas tree. 

before...

...and AFTER!!

It makes me really happy. Super duper happy.

And it's awfully pretty.

I'm pretty positive I'm going to leave it up until March.
