We put up our Christmas tree a couple of weekends ago and Lina was quite the little helper. I grew up with real trees, the pine scent filling the house and blue spruce needles so sharp they could draw blood, but Chris has visions of vacuuming up needles until July so we've opted for the artificial variety for the past 5 or so years. It definitely has it's advantages...pre-strung lights are THE BEST....but next year I would love to go real in celebration of Lina being more aware of the holiday.
We are looking forward to sharing the magic of Christmas with Lina this year, even though she will most likely only be interested in crumbling up wrapping paper.
