Tis' the Season...


Lets begin to celebrate the season of giving and the birth of our Lord. Does anyone have their Christmas tree up? My husband and I normally go the Monday after Thanksgiving (today) and pick out our tree, so I hope we can go tonight. We always get a real tree. Do you get a faux or real tree?

Our tree is up! And outdoor decorations too! We don't go too crazy on the outdoor stuff - no strands of lights or anything. We go the faux tree route - I like real trees and have had them in the past - but just feel bad throwing them out each year - not to mention the needles and our cat who realizes it is a real tree and really climbs it.

We always get a live tree - a Fraser Fir. We'll probably buy one this Saturday, since we like to keep them up until New Year's Day -I want to make sure they don't dry up too quickly. We have a few decorations up in other parts of the house.

Our tree is up. I usually put it up the weekend after Christmas, but this year I just felt like I needed the tree. Don't ask me why. Last year we had our first live tree, but this year we put up our old faux tree.

We've always had a live tree,,, and I can't wait to put ours up this weekend,,,
And I finally did something I've always wanted to do,,,a month ago I planted a blue spruce pine in my yard, I've always wanted to do that every year, I don't know why I didn't before now. But, now its there, and next Christmas I will plant another maybe 2 or 3, and in about 4 years we can cut down our own Christmas tree from our own yard, and then plant another for future Christmas's,,,I hope my plan works. It will be a Joy to watch my Christmas tree grow , I love growing things. Mamma

Ours is going up soon...a fake one. Wah. I just can't swing a real one this year, and there is the IL's old fake one in my garage, sooooo.....*sigh* But it will be just as pretty, even if it doesn't smell as nice.

I am so jealous you got your tree already, we are going this weekend and it seems so late to me! I ALWAYS get a real one, I just cant do Christmas with a fake tree :)

We put up our tree extra early this year. We didn't know when else we would find the time.
