Your tree looks beautiful. Do you decorate it this way every year?
Yes, it's a family tradition dating back to my childhood. We use the same lights and ornaments, but of course we have a new tree each year. The children made some of these decorations. Here, you can hang this on one of those high branches.
Well, everything seems to be just about ready. Now all we need is snow.
Do you exchange the presents in the morning?
Oh, yes. The kids are too excited to wait. After we clean up the mess--all the empty boxes and the wrapping paper -- we have a big breakfast. Then the kids have the whole day to play with their new toys.
And we'll have a great turkey dinner at around four o'clock. My brother and his family will be joining us.
I look forward to meeting them. Well, it's late, so I'll say good night. I'll see you early tomorrow, so I can share your Christmas morning.
Good night!
