Happy Festivus!

Little Sister had a 'homework' assignment in which we detailed our holiday traditions.

First among them is on the day following Thanksgiving we stay home, enjoy our leftovers whilst listening to some Bing Crosby holiday Pandora, and put up our tree and Christmas decorations.
The girls place all the ornaments wherever they want and have a blast.

(Okay, okay, I rearrange a little bit according to height and placement. But we don't really need three identical jingle bells within 2 inches of each other, now do we?)

Reading through our traditions made me realize... however small and simple they are alone, altogether they show how we treasure family togetherness during the holiday season and throughout the year.

And that's pretty darn wonderful.

Now tell the truth. Are we the only early birds who break out the Christmas goods on the fourth Friday of November?
