Last year, I purchased a door wreath from the high school snowboard team (I buy one every year). I stuck it on a bench on the front porch. That was it! Didn't even pull the boxes full of Christmas treasures out of the garage.

It was a bah-humbug kinda year. We had a brief zoom Christmas day with our two daughters.

This year will be the whole deal. Don't know if there will be any Christmas trees available in our area, but I'm going to pick one up as soon as I can.

It's so wonderful to have such a gracious First Lady. I'm going to guess that we won't have any horror movie hallways in the White House this year.

Thanks for posting this.
