It's The Holiday Season...

 Nothing like the smell of a Christmas tree to put everything right!  Our tree was somewhat smaller than usual this year, to fit in our little apartment, and I was only able to find a very few of our old ornaments when I went hunting in storage, but the boys and I made and found plenty of new ones.  The kids had a glorious few days of sledding before the snow melted.   Give it another week or so and it'll be here to stay!
