      Married 31 years, love hubby to match me. Bought my sons 4.5 years a part matching fits for special occasions and then the last one 15 and 11 years later can be difficult to match, but I find a way lol! Had the whole family in matching fits for our Hawaiian lua too everyone loved it the women’s dresses were different styles, but same print. Not sure son’s gf loved it that much, but I did!😅

      The booth thing is just awkward. You can't have a conversation like that. Plus, if you're in love, wouldn't you want to gaze in each other's eyes? Hard to do when you're sitting side by side.

    I remember in the past this time of year was hard for you but it is so wonderful to see you rediscovering the holiday with Steven (is it with a v or ph?)

Your home is lovely, the tree is beautiful! Thank you for sharing them with us. ❤

    a tip for next year: I usually put a shower curtain down underneath to make clean up of any water spills/condensation, sap, & needles easier. (fold it up and tuck under the tree skirt)

    • @csillaritas
      @csillaritas 5 місяців тому +3

      We used to put newspapers or wrapping paper, but it still made a mess, because we ended up ripping the paper. Shower curtain sounds so much better.

    • @sakhti9962
      @sakhti9962 5 місяців тому +1

      Also when you want to move the tree out of the house you can wrap the tree in it and then get the tree outside with minimal needle shedding in the house (in theory...). My family used to put the tree on a low table and did the same with a tablecloth.
      (Style points if you hire a non-descript van, put the tree in it in the middle of the night while constantly looking around you and then run back into the garage to bring out a shovel....)

    • @Deb_BG
      @Deb_BG 5 місяців тому +1

      We have a special Christmas carpet to put under the tree.

      Love it.

    Your tree looks great! I'm sure you're getting tons of tree tips, but in case it's helpful: putting the trunk toward the front of the car can help with making it secure on the highway, and cutting the bottom off the tree trunk to expose fresh wood will help keep it fresh longer. Oh, and the aspirin thing is a myth! Just keep the reservoir full and keep the tree away from heat sources.

    Ok can I come to CO and paint and decorate your home gym? I think you would be so much more excited to go out there if it was all painted and cute. This comes from a good place and seriously offering my help. I will fly out there and get it done over a weekend. You have all the equipment just need to paint, put some tall mirrors up, a little station to hold towels, bands yoga mats...all the cute and necessary stuff. Maybe even a little mini fridge. You deserve a special little space.

  • @tammihinkley8428

    Couples do match, young and old. Also really affectionate couples sit on the same side of the booth. Lol. I don't and we have been married 27 years, but I have friends that do who have been married the same amount of time. Everyone is different, but I think couples matching (not exact but similar colors) are super cute.

    @TH-dj3zo 5 місяців тому +3

    FYI you put the tree on your car the wrong way. The truck of the tree should be by the front of the car. this way when you drive the wind won't go through the branches. and make it like an umbrella(don't know how else to describe it). Also you need a thick blanket or rug . This way tree won't move around so much. Oh and whatever you use to hold tree down should go around from the inside of car.

    The settling thing is true! Most trees are wrapped in nets when they are transported to wherever they are sold. And then again when they are purchased. It does take time for the branches to settle back down. If you only had your tree wrapped for a short time, then you probably dont need to wait that long. So short story long: it depends on how long it was wrapped before and after you bought it.

    I've been watching your channel for a while. You always pop up on my feed, so I assumed I was subscribed. Nope. Now I am. Any who. I think Steven is a good match for you. He seems to be nudging you out of your comfort zone, but in a wholesome, patient way. You have come a long way from the uncomfortable caterpillar I first watched.

    Here in Central Texas, they sell rosemary plants cut into xmas tree shapes that are about 2.5 feet tall. You might like getting one or two to decorate, because then you have a useful herbal plant after the season is over.

      Where I live, there's a goat farm that recycles them! The goats love them, apparently!

      I was just in Arizona visiting my mom and she had one on her front porch. Being from Colorado that was something I’d never seen before. Lovely fragrance
