It's Not the Best Pic, But...


































isn't my very first life-sized (as opposed to teeny, table-top-sized) tree kinda purty anyway??

I got the tree, skirt, tree topper (which you can't see), and most of the ornaments on sale after Christmas last year! I saved a buttload of money. I can't decide if I'm going to brave the crowds and find a few more decorations after Christmas this year...

Do you have your tree and/or holiday stuff up yet?

It is pretty! I've seen it. I hope that you're feeling better today. No more sneezing?

It's gorgeous! We put up a second tree after I sent you pictures of the big one. :-) Now if only we had snow.

It's a lovely tree, you did great! Are those present shaped Christmas lights on there? I put my tree up on Thanksgiving night!

Thanks y'all! Yes Amber those are present lights. I love them. I got them on clearance a few years ago and haven't been able to even use them until now. I wish I would've bought 1-2 more sets- there aren't many presents per string...
