It's a family tradition of ours to Decorate for Christmas the weekend after Thanksgiving. Our son's birthday falls during Thanksgiving week, so we try to separate the holidays as much as we can and save Christmas festivities for after Thanksgiving so that his birthday will be just as special as everyone else's. So this past weekend, we bought our tree and got ready to decorate, only to realize that all of our Christmas decorations, except for this mini tree I've had for years and a few small items, were still in our storage unit back where we used to live.
