Oh Christmas Tree

I'm not one to get into the holiday spirit much with lots of decorations and gifts, and I pretty much can't stand Christmas music. Well, I like Christmas hymns that are sung at church, it's those dumb commercial songs like Here Come Santa Clause, Deck the Halls, Up on the Rooftop, Rudolf, Jingle Bells, etc... I am much a fan of Oh Little Town of Bethlehem, Angels We Have Heard on High, We Three Kings, Silent Night and my fav O Holy Night.

So, where I'm heading with this is that I was debating back and forth if I wanted to get a tree for my apartment. Last week I bought a wreath for the door... and a cute snowmanwhich I though was very Christmasy of me. Above and beyond any of my expectations for myself.

But I finally decided that I did want a Christmas tree with decorations.

It is very simple and not extravagant but I like it that way.
