Every year I wait in anticipation for Christmas. Its just gratifying to watch our beautiful Christmas tree,” said Renderos about her reason for decorating.

“The star for our Christmas tree is by far my favorite, it’s a crystal and it shines with the Christmas lights and the oldest would be the snowman plushie with a green hat that accompanies the tree.”
