The wreath...

One of my absolute favorite gifts at Christmas is the wreath from Aunt Dorothy. I love getting the box and opening it inside to have the smell fill the house... I don't even care if needles fall off and I have to clean them... I love the aroma and the sense that Christmas has arrived! It is a tradition that I am so grateful that she started and continues. I should have taken a picture when it first arrived, but since I didn't here is a picture from yesterday. Yesterday we had snow flurries with lots of wind, and it is bitterly cold (those of you from up North can chuckle because I think that anything below 32 is bitterly cold) today. In five days, they are predicting 70 degrees and sun... yippie!!!
