And the aftermath...a scrawny bare tree and the mess up front! I love it! But this is where I get sad. I can't stand when the festivities come to a close. It gives me this dreadful feeling of emptiness...ugh...I hate this part! Why can't it just drag on for days? I love the prep & the build up, but I always feel like just when I've gotten everything together & I can finally relax to enjoy, then it's all over! #christmasexploded #christmasisover #christmasnight #holidayblues #christmasmess #christmas2016 (at Seattle, Washington)
