I typically prefer the warm glow of white Christmas lights on the tree, but when you get a free tree with colored lights you definitely can't pass that up. My parents let Kevin and I use their old Christmas tree and lights. There werent' enough white lights to cover the tree, but plenty of colored lights. Along with the tree came all my ornaments that I have been collecting for 21 years, at least one per year. The tree barely fit in our apartment, but I was surprised how well these few ornaments covered the tree. We didn't really need any others.
A week or two ago, after Kevin got back from working at the temple we sat on the couch in the Christmas tree light and ate hot brownies, drank cold milk, and listened to Christmas music. It was so warm and happy and even in the colored lights :) it still felt like Christmas.
