Today is “PUT UP THE TREE” day and I couldn’t be happier. It’s the first time of the year I get to watch movies like National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story, Elf, Home Alone, The Grinch, and other classics. It means the start of Peppermint Mochas from Starbucks and telling my wife the same childhood stories over and over that she has heard every year since we have started dating. It means time with family and time away from work. It means snow, like the feathery white stuff on top of our cars this morning.
