As the snow is falling, it puts me into the Christmas spirit. In my house, we are starting to put up our decorations and get everything ready for Christmas. We have yet to get our tree, but I believe we will do that in the near future. We usually go to a place on County Line to get our tree, but I cannot think of the name of the place. My family tries to get a tree that is not too big, but is also not too small. In order to get the tree, we have to cut it ourselves, which is usually sort of a pain in the neck both literally and figuratively. After we get our tree, we pick a day where the whole family stops what they are doing and decorates the tree with beautiful ornaments. We have a variety of ornaments; We have some that we have made as little kids in Kindergarten or even preschool. We also have ones that my mother has bought from the store. After we decorate the tree with ornaments, we wrap the tree with lights. We usually go with the multicolored lights as opposed to the single colored lights. When all that is done we put the finishing touches on with the star! I love Christmas time for a couple reasons. One reason is that I get to eat a bunch of food the whole day, and another reason is that I get to see the excitement of Christmas on my little brother and sisters' faces on Christmas morning; The same excitement that I used to show and no longer do. Also spending time with family is always a grand old time in my household. I still do get excited about opening gifts a little bit, but not nearly as much as I used to. Have a great Christmas!
