rockin’…

… around the Christmas tree, DUH!

Actually, the only rockin’ that happens around here lately is when we’re trying to get the baby to go to sleep. She’s already in bed, so we’re relaxing on the couch instead, enjoying the Christmas lights and music.

We finally finished putting up our tree last night. This is the latest we have ever been at getting it done! I’m no help at speeding up the process, either, because I am SO PICKY about how the lights look. We may or may not have ended up taking them all off and redoing them… Last year, Lelia did the lights (she’s pretty much a professional tree lighter-upper), and before we got this tree, we had a little pre-lit one. Basically, this was the first year we strung the lights ourselves.

And I think it turned out pretty fantastic.

18 more days!
