To me, it's not Christmas until....

Our house can be seen from outer space. I know, not possible, but Christmas really feels like it's getting close when out house is lit and the tree is up and I can't stop wistling those damn catchy christmas songs. Many people consider Christmas as starting on Black Friday. Not me. Why you ask? I'm not a big fan of the commercialism that surrounds Christmas. I celebrate it for what it was meant to represent, the birth of Jesus. Sure I buy presents and all that jazz but I don't let myself get caught up in all the other holiday madness. Since Christmas season is now upon us, enjoy your family and friends and celebrate the holiday for the reason it was created.
