As the last of the Thanksgiving turkey is finished off, it's time to look towards Christmas.  This year, take the lead in decorating and preparing your home for the holidays.  

Whether it is trimming the tree, putting up lights, hanging the stockings, make it a family event for all to enjoy.  Rather than rush to get it all done in one day or night, spread it out over the week and take your time to enjoy each moment.

Don't forget to start the season right with Christmas music while you decorate.
