My mom stopped putting up a tree when I was 15....which made me really sad. And since living with my BF we haven't had one either. This year, my friend is giving me hers since she's getting a new one. So this will be our first tree together!!!!! I'm putting it up NEXT WEEK!! and I have no shame! Lol. I know most people put it up right before or after Thanksgiving but I just can't wait. I'm so happy. The YT card exchange also really makes me happy...I love holidays because they give me an excuse to decorate A.K.A. glitter-bomb our apartment.
This yr halloween was good. We dressed up and partied a lot. Did pumpkins and haunted trails. Today I made my employees play the 'Halloween Party' station on Pandora.  It played Thriller, Monster Mash, other typical halloween spooky songs. Anyone who knows me knows I am all about holidays. I hope that never changes as I get older and I hope my kids love holidays too. |
Christmas: Im glad that you and you FB will be getting your first tree together. I still have ours from 27 yrs ago from our first Christmas in our own apartment together. I was just a little 2.5 ft tree with a strand of light on it, not much but is was ours. When my daughter was 3 she asked santa clause for her own Christmas tree and we used that one. We had it all set up for her to wake up to on Christmas morning. She was so excited and now she is taking it for her and her BF to use for their first Christmas together in their house.
Once I threated to not put up the tree last year and my DH said that I will ruin Christmas so he went down and got it and put it together and than said "there I did my part" which is more than what he usefully does.
Halloween: This will be the first time in 28 yrs that my DH is going with me to celebrate Halloween !! He don't much care for my odd scene of humor that I put into my costumes but oh will. He is going as Michel Myers so yesterday I found a ring tone for his phone of the Halloween theme song. Im going to be calling his phone all night on Sat. just to freak people out.
