28 days. traditions.

















my family traditions during the holidays.

christmas tree put up day after thanksgiving.
someone has to go under the crawl space to find the bins.
no one wants to do it.
so mama does & without fail bumps her head.
drag the boxes up the stairs..
we have a small discussion on where the tree should go this year.
mama frantically cleans while all the needles fall off the tree
the nativity scene gets set up on fake snow.
stockings get hung up the railing.
everyone counts their pennies inside.
then the fun begins.
who gets to put up which ornaments.
where is papi? 
outside working or downstairs listening to all the commotion.

to be continued when i get home & this actually happens.
