I want a train to go around the bottom of my Christmas tree. I want to start building a little village for under my tree every year. And the train goes around it. So every year I buy something new for the train, the village, and an ornament that will remind me of that Christmas year.
I usually just buy things I want through out the year so I do not make Christmas a gift buying time. If I had kids maybe, but I don't and I won't.
So I make Christmas a fun-decorating thing. I love Christmas Decorations and a huge dinner for Christmas.
