New Traditions..

After being together almost 5 years, and married just 8 months, Tim and I finally got to decorate our very first tree together tonight.  Not too shabby for our first tree, right?
We listened to records, drank wine while we decorated the tree, ate chicken manicotti, and watched my all time favorite, When Harry Met Sally.  We think this will be our yearly tradition for our tree decorating night. 
 And you really can't go wrong with a little wine and music to get you in a festive tree decorating mood. 
The best part of creating your own new traditions is that they can be whatever you want.  So what if When Harry Met Sally isn't exactly a Christmas movie, they go through the Christmas season and New Year's in the movie.  It's good enough for me :)
