First Married Christmas Tree!

Its the Christmas season!! This is my favorite time of the year!=> After a wonderful weekend with family, Jared and I began putting up decorations! My parents were nice enough to let Jared and I have the old Christmas tree (my mom bought one with lights already in it), so we were blessed to not have to buy that! Our first ever decoration to put up was the elf clothes from Denmark, then two nativity scenes. We put those decorations up on Sat, and set up the tree on Sunday, but we didnt have any decorations for the tree (other than the lights my parents gave us). So today I went to the craft store in the middle of the day to get some decorations. I felt like such a grown-up.=> They had a bunch of sample trees up, but my budget wasnt big enough to just copy their design (like I normally do =>) so I had to be creative! It was so exciting! And I am very pleased with the outcome. And I even cheated. When I was little and I would help my mom decorate the tree she would always make sure we decorated equally all around the tree because "santa inspects the decorations on the christmas trees". But I only decorated the front half of the tree lol => And I kept relatively in my budget => I was so excited! =>
