Puttin' Up the Tree

It's feeling a lot like Christmas, so now it's time to make it look like Christmas too! We got a Christmas tree when we first moved to Allegan 8 years ago. We were thrilled to have such a lovely tree and decorations. They worked great in the apartment we lived in, but since we moved into our house about 4 years ago, we've been wanting to update the ornaments and some of the seasonal decor. This year we finally did it- we went to the store and got a whole new set of lights and ornaments for our tree! Diana was really drawn to the silver and blue decor, but was a little nervous, afraid it might look too 'cold'. We decided to go for it anyway and loaded up with new tree decorations.
The next evening it was time to try the new look! We turned on some Christmas tunes, out came the tree, and we got busy making it jolly! After we got it all set up and turned on the lights, we were all quite pleased with the final product! We all love our newly designed tree! Now we are ready for the Christmas season!
