Don’t get me wrong…I really am glad that Fall is here and ’tis the season for things like this:
But while looking through our holiday decorations last night, I kept seeing things that reminded me of this….
And as much as I love it all, it’s a shame it all only gets displayed for such a short time each year.
I agree with you, Mandy. Way too much commercialism and not enough emphasis on what Christmas is really about.
No! No! Don't rush Christmas!
I can already feel the anxiety of present buying. My heart is racing and my fingers are just about forcing me to Amazon and just ordering the first thing I see just to be done.
AAAhhhhhhh!
how about a house with every room representing a different season/holiday?!
We feel the same way! However we found this great book that encourages and gives tips on how to make traditions through out the year. (which is great for me because I am not great at it) It is called Creating Family Traditions by Shirely Dobson. This way I am not so sad to see all the other decorations go back to the boxes…
I agree that is why we have a tradition of putting the tree up Thanksgiving weekend.
