This actually surprises some people what one of my favorite things about winter is. I am a pretty active person and love to do things. Winter can come in harsh and even though they make great gear to be out in the cold, it's not always for everyone.
The Parade of Lights was this weekend and the annual lighting of the tree downtown Missoula. The countdown is always a fun part! Christmas fun and holiday spirit all around us. If you were in attendance then you are a part of this countdown for our Christmas tree for the Missoula area.
This year it took me longer then a day to put up my tree then normal. I love decorating for the holidays and Christmas trees are probably the best. They brighten my day and in particular with all my grandas ornaments and keeping her memory alive.
My new Christmas tradition has to do with my grandma and her ornaments. I hope I continue this for many many years to come although I know it could get a bit much.
The 14th annual Parade of Lights was fun! It was my first time and I was impressed by the amount of people that gathered out on a chilly night for some great holiday festivities.
