December

6 foot vintage white tree, 2009
  • Dear ones gathered
  • Evergreens glistening
  • Carolers Singing
  • Evening candlelight
  • Marshmallow mustaches
  • Bright twinkling lights
  • Embers burning
  • Ribbon tied packages

  17. It's cold this morning. A cup of steamy hot chocolate with marshmallows sounds like just the thing.

    Have you put your tree up yet? I haven't, but I did help Rachel get her's decorated yesterday.
