Practically every day since Halloween David and Joey have asked if we can get the Christmas stuff out. (A neighbor of ours apparently has a tradition that every year the day after Halloween she gets her Christmas stuff out, so now all the kids in the neighborhood that play with her kid want their stuff out as well.)
So here we go...Sunday after church when the sun went down we put up our tree. The past couple years I have put the treee up for about a week without decorations because I think it is so peaceful and beautiful. This tree I bought a few years ago and it has little pine cones all over it just like these. It really is peaceful for me to have the lights on like this, all day sometimes.

Then on Monday for FHE we put out the main nativity that we have and talked about the "Reason for the Season".
Dave and I have been collecting this nativity for a few years now and this year I was able to purchase the final piece we needed.
I love this saying by Elder Maxwell. I hope we all decide this season that there is room for Him in our lives and homes!
