The tree

I wanted to get Emmett a nice stocking this year that would last forever. I have had the same stocking since I was a baby, but I wanted to update mine before my other one fell a part, I found these lovelies at The Pottery Barn for a great price. They are made out of wool just like real stockings. We both love them. Since we are mantel-less, this is where they got hung. Emmett go the long white one.

Since I was so excited to put a tree up, we didn't get a real tree this year. I think it still looks great! I just miss the pine smell. We have three ornaments so we compensated with some candy canes and cranberry garland. I think our tree was a tree only we could love due to the lack of decor. There is a reason for that: I had a tradition growing up that each new place we went, we got an ornament for the tree. So my mom's tree has all the travelling memories on hers. Well I thought it would be great for E and I to do the same since we both love to travel! So we have 3 so far, but as we collect more, we will have some great memories!
