On Tuesday night, me and mom put up our Christmas trees (with a bit of technical help from dad). It's a tradition for us to decorate the tree together and I missed it a lot last year.
They brought in Sunday but it needed to dry out a bit. When they went, there wasn't a lot of choice so we ended up with a much bigger tree than usual!

Dad had to cut some off the top and bottom so it would stand up in the living room.

Then me and mom decorated. She wanted to go a little more color coordinated I think but I refused. I prefer more cheerful to color coordinated. Though we might have to change some of the lights around as there is a bare patch.

| Final tree |
We also have a small artificial one in the porch which has all our decoration we made as kids (that have survived this long!).

I am glad we still have a real tree in the house. The smell is amazing and always makes it feel like Christmas.

Mom and I spent the rest of the night drinking wine and putting the world to rights while dad was out.
