Day 14 - The Tree

Tonight we got a tree, a lovely fragrant Douglas fir. Sabrina stayed up late to witness the one-hour ordeal that it was to get it straight and solidly planted in its stand. We strung lights, leaving the ornaments for the morning. Then we turned off all the lights, cuddled on the sofa and gazed at this lovely symbol of the holidays. Sabrina thought it was Christmas Eve, so we had to explain that not yet. Although our home looks, smells and feels like Christmas now.
