I've been putting up the same Christmas decorations for years. I know some people change it up and do a designer tree each year with the latest trends in colors and themes, but for me, there's just something cozy and comforting about putting up the same familiar tree and ornaments each year. It's like I get to take old friends out of storage in late November every year and get reacquainted. One of these years I'm going to have to give in and upsize my tree. I add a few new ornaments to my collection each year -- Crate&Barrel gets me each year with their plush, crafty creatures -- and I don't think this little Charlie Brown tree is going to hold a single additional ornament beyond what I've stuffed on it this year. Every branch has a tenant. But for now Dixie and I are enjoying snuggling up next to our old friends with a fire in the fireplace and a favorite Christmas movie any chance we get.
Only one week until Christmas! Time to get some presents underneath that tree! If only Dixie could help me out with that.

Merry Christmas friends! I hope you are enjoying this season and feeling incredibly blessed.
