Howard and I haven't bought a Christmas tree for at least the last three years. Sad, right? This year we felt inspired to actually leave the house - on Black Friday - to get a tree. We thought we wanted a fake tree, picked one out first thing, and wheeled it all over Lowe's while we looked at other stuff we thought we needed. At the last minute we decided we wanted a real tree. We bought our biggest tree ever - from the 8' to 9' section. The truck came in really handy. The Lowe's guy just 'threw' the tree into the back of the truck - easiest tree transport EVER!
The presents are in the back. We decided
to emphasize the Savior's birth by
putting some nativities under the tree.
Okay, so I have a bit of a stocking and metal
reindeer fetish. My sister-in-law made us the snowman
wall hanging several years ago. Isn't it cute!?!

I don't see any of our hand knit stockings hanging from that mantle. Did we give them all away???
ReplyDeleteGlad you got a real tree. Love that smell -- it's worth all the dead needles.
