Getting Into The Holiday Spirit

We bought our Christmas tree the Sunday after Thanksgiving, and then spent the next week decorating it.  As well as my super-sad attempt at making pepper jelly.  I turned my back for a second and the pot of sugar/vinegar erupted like a volcano.  I have never faced a bigger mess.  But the jars sure looked pretty...the jelly just tasted awful!  Also, Muffin and I made our own ornaments.  Seeing that most of our stuff is packed up in storage, we had to get creative in decorating the house.
