We went out and bought a live tree on
BLACK FRIDAY!
Yes, we actually went to a store.
And it was PERFECT!
Rod and I put lights on it and then garland.
No ornaments.
It looked funny.
So on Saturday Kyle and I headed to Michael's
and bought a container of 50 unbreakable balls
for $12.00 (great sale!).
The majority of our ornaments are old.
And breakable.
And we didn't want to deal with it.
So we bought these new ones.
And I think it looks lovely.
I'll probably go back to a mix of old and new
next year, but this year I just felt like
doing something different!
She's a beaut.
And there is just something about a live tree.
We have to put her on cinder blocks and then
wrap it all in a Christmas themed blanket.
Beau likes to drink the water.
And then he stands under the lowest branches
because he likes the way they brush his back.
(Which is why we keep breaking ornaments...)
So, this year he has left it all alone.
Of course, there are no gifts under there yet.
He has been known to chew the bows off here and there.
Silly dog.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Have you started listening to Christmas music yet???
