Virtual Tree Trimming...

After dinner we finally decorated our trees. 

I’ve taken to calling ours a Love Tree because so many of our ornaments bring back fond memories of times together and exploring the world. 

Jimmy made us homemade mulled wine, which was tastier and less sweet than the usual gluhwijn that we buy at the grocery store.

I love how these photos look so old-fashioned and modern at the same time. 

Here’s our 2020 family ornament, which sums up the year pretty well: the four of us are wearing masks, the zeroes in the year are shaped like the coronamvirus, there’s hand sanitizer and the banner is on toilet paper.

True confession: we kept our tree up until early March to bring extra light and cheer into the darkness of winter.
