By the end of the season, I've eaten way too many formal dinners and gotten sick of decorating Christmas trees (one at each house, plus one at each grandparent's house!) but I've been doing this so long that it's just become the way it is.

At Thanksgiving dinner, when we go around the table saying what we're thankful for, I always say "I'm thankful for my brother and sister, who help me to be a strong tree trunk holding up some crazy family branches!"
