we are ready

"too soon" isn't a sentiment that applies to christmas celebrations in the staple house. we're always ready. and last weekend, i couldn't wait any longer: we got a tree. we dragged the decorations up from the basement. we listened to christmas music. we felt the joy, the love, the excitement, the anticipation. it's never to early to bring out a little joy and love, right?

tree hunters, on the prowl in the mist


sawing, watching, and preparing for the great "tiiiiimmmmmmberrrrrr" moment


helpful helpers, always helping

look at that beauty. filling my home with a warm glow, filling my heart with seasonal joy.


and this year, a dream realized: a second tree. yep. kids' tree. they are SO into it.


everyone is feeling the joy and peace.
