Do not open before x-mas


Last night I forced myself to say farewell to the Christmas tree. Our own, very first tree that believe it or not still was green. Even the top. I also noticed some buds in it. The decorations got tucked into a box until next time. Probably until next year, if we don't go to Thailand then ;) (Right baby?!)

The storing of the decorations is to me nothing like putting the bike in the shed until the snow melts. It is way more emotional! Traditions have been made. In fifty years we are going to sit there telling the grandkids that those wooden ornaments have been in the tree every single year since grandma and grandpa celebrated their first Christmas together. Ahhhhh,,, and they lived happily ever after...
