We have engrained traditions when it comes to Christmas. Krum kicks off the towns celebration on the first Saturday of December and so do WE.
1. If everything works out, the day starts with a 5k Santa Run (not this year). I met my best friend Danielle at the very first Santa Run. So it will always hold a special place in my heart.
2. We go and find the perfect tree. Alex picked a tree this year based on the price. So we have an 8 ft. tree for $28. Love a good deal.
3. Then we decorate it, to reveal the German ornaments that I bought post-Christmas the year before. We are getting quite a collection. Each year the glass ornaments get a little lower on the tree.
4. We attend the parade of lights, always fun. No
tractors this year, but we did have a marching band.
5. Finally, Chili dinner with Santa, yes that is the real Santa and he likes chili.
What a great time it is for everyone, a perk of living in a
small town that renames itself NORTH POLE TEXAS
