Size doesn't matter.

Somehow, 3 months have passed. And there have been no major set backs in our new small home life style. In fact we are finding that there is more than enough room to hide gifts in the attic. A new place always feels like home once you have shared a Christmas there. I think that is why we ended up putting the tree up so early this year. We had originally anticipated getting a real tree this year so that we would not have to store it but because the only space we have in next to our bed, and I am severely allergic, we opted for an artificial tree again this year. It also lends us the opportunity to put it up sooner. 

I love the soft glow of the lights beside my bed at night. The whole house glows with the ambient light. There goes the electric bill! I think I shall get a plug-in timer so I can fall asleep with the light on and have them go out after I'm asleep.

We're wondering how Santa will get past us this year, surely one of us will hear him since we are all so close together. In the end, we have big excitement in our small home....size doesn't matter.
