I put the tree up in the loft which over looks the living room. We like it because you can see it from the living room and the loft but it is not in the way. At night the lights reflect on the windows in a mirror image.
Jane, Ben and Jake come to Texas for Christmas every other year and Thanksgiving on opposite years. This year they came on Thanksgiving. John, Casey, Peyton and Jack went to Florida to visit Casey's Grandmother and Grandfather on Christmas Day. Instead of getting together on Christmas we had a small gathering on Christmas Eve. We were visited earlier in the day by Donna and Howard. Joy, Rob, Brooke and Austin were here for dinner along with Angie, Brent, and Robert. Taryn, Chris, Luke and Logan were also here for dinner. We had a nice time but it is not the same when loved ones are missing.
