1-7-15

Martin: The house we stayed in has the bamboo pots out front on the right. That was one steep hill to walk up and down.

Me: We are one week into the new year (January 7th). Is it wrong that our Christmas tree is still up?! I've been leaving it up for a few reasons…

1) It's pretty and I like to look at it. :-)
2) When do I have time to take it down? Every day is packed with other things.
3) Bob's parents arrive today (for 3 days) and since we didn't see them over the holidays we can have a mini Christmas celebration. Ya know…without the presents, cookies, turkey, stuffing & holiday music.
4) My mom is coming on January 19th and I didn't see her at Christmas either! Is that pushing it?…January 19th & we still have our tree up.
5) Christmas 2015 is only 51 weeks away. Maybe I should just leave our tree up until then. It would save me the hassle of boxing all these decorations up just to take them out again in November.

  1. I think all the reasons you mentioned are good ones....We took our tree down last Saturday, but it made me sad because we got a new one this year, and it was the most beautiful tree we have ever had....just loved looking at it....keep it up till next year???? YES!
