Christmas in July

Christmas is one of my favorite holidays.

Not because of the gifts, but because my family gathers under one roof, we have wonderful meals together, and we enjoy movies on dad's big tv.

I was looking through the pictures on my new laptop when I found an album from Christmas 2007. Figured they would make a good blog post. Enjoy!

This is Chip & Charlotte, our heroes from Saturday night.

My brother's cute pup.

Brother & sisterly love

Me & Aunt Catherine

Doug & all the gifts

Going shopping for a Christmas tree. I love our

traditions. Usually we go right after Thanksgiving, and we all

go together. We also get the tallest tree possible.

As we decorate, we put on Christmas music or a movie and eat

cookies. I love it!

Post-Christmas tree shopping

Christmas Eve dinner preparations. My mom is the best cook!

Ok, so apparently I put these in reverse chronological order. Oops!

I can't wait for the fall and Christmas time! We are halfway there :-)
