This year I decided to let Luca pick the lights for the tree...so of course, we have multi-colored. Or as Luca calls them "All the Colors Lights". Putting the tree up and hanging all of our ornaments I felt as though the tree from my childhood ended up in the living room, made me a bit nostalgic. I will admit that I was rather hoping she would pick white or red or...something else but there's always next year I suppose. In the meantime, I am embracing the multi.
A peek at Luca's personal tree and the ornaments I found on it after naptime...
Also new this year are outdoor lights! We took advantage of the beautiful Thanksgiving weather; Joe got the ladder and expertly wrapped the front tree while I dug out the eight strands of icicle lights from our wedding reception (nine years later and they still work!) and draped the shrubbery.
I
love it. Especially in the snow...

You're such a good mommy to allow Luca to choose the light color (I'm quite certain if given the option my gang would totally veto my white lights . . .) Love your "paper circle garland"--I think I just saw a tutorial on a blog somewhere just today! Luca's tree made me laugh, you obviously did not supply her with enough real ornaments. ;o) And the outside of your home looks fabulous with the lights/snow/grey exterior--so peaceful and serene looking. Have fun celebrating the season!
