Christmas decorations!

I love Christmas decorations. And music. And cookies. And the general celebratory-ness that is the holiday season.

We arrived back in Alexandria of Friday afternoon and I immediately set in to Christmas decorating. Almost all of Saturday was dealing with the tree - a new one purchased at an after-the-holidays sale in January. I decided to go hog-wild with the lights this year, wrapping strands around each branch level as I put it up, instead of waiting to wrap the lights around the entire tree when it was finished. This proved to be a gorgeous idea. Just one that I'm a little worried about getting OFF the tree when it's time to take it down...

I'll take some snap shots this week to post up, because of course I'm going to assume you're all VERY interested in how the house looks.

Wow, that pretty much wraps up my weekend! Truly! Just lots of Christmas music, burning cinnamon on the stove, and trying out a new (and delicious) beef bolognese recipe!

Now, to online shopping...
