We have the tree, we have the tubs of decoration unearthed and up from the basement, now we just need to finish the job!!The weather here is going a long way to making it feel like Christmas! Milwaukee's December snow fall average is 11.5 inches. So far (Dec. 13) we have already gotten 20 inches of snow!!! Luckily we didn't get it all at once and some of it went away before we got hit again. Wednesday we go 7" of wet heavy snow, it was a pain for us, but the dogs LOVED it!
They are wearing their Christmas collars and leashes, they are trying to drink the tree water and when they are not bounding through the snow, I'm sure visions of rawhides are dancing through their heads! I know that Santa has a funny treat in store for them.
Well, this house isn't going to decorate itself, we've got a pot of peppermint coffee (my favorite!) brewing and a stack of Christmas movies and Cds, time to get moving. It's a little financial strain having both of us unemployed at Christmas, but it's GREAT to have the time to spend together. We can decorate without me having to rush off to a show in the middle of it.
Maybe I'll have some 'after' pictures later today!
