Decorating the tree

One of our holiday traditions is that my sisters and I decorate the tree. When we were little, my mom would put up the tree, and we would get up early in the morning to decorate. I would play our Nat King Cole Christmas tape and boss my sisters around. When we got older, Megan would put up the tree and Stephanie would help her fluff the branches and put up the lights. I would put the ornaments on the tree.

Stephanie isn't coming home for the holidays (she didn't last year either), and it just isn't the same without her. Decorating the tree is more fun with both my sisters.

Notice we're both wearing tank tops - it's been pretty warm here!
