Welcome to blogmas day 5! Today, we decorated our Christmas tree. When I was younger I used to love doing this. But in recent years it's seemed more of a task then a fun thing to do with my family. Maybe it's because as you get older Christmas starts to lose it's magic. Or maybe it's because as I've gotten older my relationship with my family has gotten more and more distant. Maybe it's a combination of both. Either way the past few years I haven't really enjoyed decorating the tree. My family doesn't get a real tree anymore although we used to when I was younger. Our tree doesn't have a theme.We have a collection of ornaments that have been gathered over the years. Personally I would rather a themed tree. I just think that they look nicer. But I can do that when I get my own place hopefully within the next few years.
Our tree does look nice though. My favorite ornament is a wooden Ariel (The Little Mermaid) one that I got for Christmas last year. The Little Mermaid is my favorite princess movie and Ariel is my favorite Disney princess. I also have some cheerleading ornaments that I love since cheerleading was such a big part of my life for about half my life so far. Every year we put an angel on as the tree topper. I remember we used to have this Santa head as a tree topper and it was really creepy. I found it so creepy to me that my parents bought the angel topper.
