Ever since i was a kid I've always loved decorating for Christmas. It's been fun now that Whitney and I have our own apartment that we can decorate as best we can. Last year we lucked out and got a free Christmas tree from my sister Kristen. This year we weren't sure what we were going to do for a tree. We don't really have a place to store it so we've avoided buying a fake one. We both have always grown up with real trees but they're so expensive here that we didn't want to spend money on that. We went to Walmart to pick up a stocking for Will and a few other things a saw a fake tree that didn't look too bad and was only 35 dollars. So we asked my parents if they'd mind storing it for us during the year and they said yes. So now we have our very own Christmas tree and its all set up and ready for Santa, that's probably the only way we'll have any presents this year anyway! Well after we got done decorating the tree Whitney got tired and went to bed. I on the other hand broke out all of our other lights, a step ladder, and a staple gun and proceeded to hang up all our lights outside on our apartment. I started about 9pm and finished up about 10. Whitney still thinks I'm a little crazy but like I said, I've always loved decorating for Christmas. We are now the only house/apartment on our street that has any lights out, and we stick out like you wouldn't believe.
