For Mom

...and any others who have been waiting for a picture of my first Christmas tree in the Strudel.
Christmas time is my favorite time of year, and my roommates got a taste for that fact when I arrived home from Thanksgiving and promptly told them I thought we should go buy a tree. They humored me, and a few hours, a couple trips to Target, and two tree stands later, the Strudel house was properly decorated for Christmas. More pictures to come, but for now, if you think about it, pray that I would get over a cold which is seriously putting a damper on the joy of the season for me. It took me out completely today (should I admit that this is the first productive thing I've done all day?), and I'd rather be able to enjoy this last week with the students.

Thanks! I love it. It's so...so...symmetrical! And themed. And lovely. What fun, and worth the bother.

Krista, I love your appreciation for beauty. I want to grow in that. I love how excited you get about decorating and hostessing... it's such a picture of beauty, feminity, and God's delight. Thanks for showing me that, Krista.
