The Perfect Tree

The perfect Christmas tree can only be found at Susan's. At least that is what my experience tells me. Finding this tree requires much searching,

climbing,

and using a look off to see far and wide for where that tree may be hiding.



After being distracted by so many non tree treasures we came upon this spectacular tree.

This is the perfect tree...tall, straight, old, full and most importantly, everyone agrees this should come home with us.


It suits us just right, with a little (or a lot) left for some outdoor decorating).

December fun has begun

When your son arrives home with a gigantic carrot (a memento of a Christmas play), what should a parent do?

Welcome home Christmas carrot!....'cause carrots are festive, right?

This week has been filled with plenty of Christmas planning and preparations. Our house is beginning to look festive.


The preparations also include lots of gift making. Everyone is in on the fun, loving making something special for some special people. Hope the recipients love their gifts just as much.



So much more to come.
