the Ultimate Christmas Playlist 

the Ultimate Christmas Playlist

One of the traditions at my workplace is to put together our 20′ Christmas tree. Just bringing the tree out of storage is a process, we haul that baby in 2 boxes down a flight of stairs. Along with our little tree party, we put on Christmas music and jam while we fluff up every branch, one by one. Needless to say, this takes quite a while. 

My favourite songs tend a little more towards classic Christmas tunes, with a few of my favourite modern rock bands thrown in. Each year, I add a few more songs into the mix.

This year, we put the little Bose Soundlink Mini within the tree. This little speaker fits into the palm of my hand, and is light enough to be supported by the branches. Using Bluetooth, you can connect your iPhone, or iPad to the SoundLink.
