Well, Christmas was a success. All the decorations were taken down mid-afternoon on Christmas day. I get that from my mom. I remember the tree was always taken down and out the door before noon and the winter wonderland that had once been was packed up in the garage for next year. It was really nice being home this year considering we spent last Christmas in Hawaii away from everyone. There was a lot of family gathering and by the end of the day the hubby and I were completely worn out. We had to get creative with the Christmas décor considering we were starting from square one. Luckily I picked up some ornaments the day after Christmas for next year. This really confused Dustin. He couldn't understand why on Earth I was buying stuff for next year already. He has no concept of Christmas sales and shopping.
