Decorating the Christmas tree



Ok so now that it is after Thanksgiving, it is legal to put up our Christmas tree!:-) This was Liane's first time participating in this fun tradition! Now, I grew up with live trees and Salomon grew up with artificial ones... (are you feeling the tension? ;-) So we compromise, and the first year we got married Salomon was gracious enough to go against everything he stands for and got a live tree for me (good man) and so then last year we used the artificial one his family gave us before we got married. Well this year then would be the live tree year, but since we will be out of town for part of this month, with a little one around who likes to put anything into her mouth, and while trying to "go green" and help save the environment, we are going with the artifical one this year again ( we shall see about next year :-)

Tis the season! So fun! We bought a fake one too (even though I grew up with the real thing too). We decorated the tree Sunday evening. Chelsea wasn't very involved but we are looking forward to next year when she will be.

Ok good, makes my heart happy to know that others I know and love are opting for the fake ones too. Whew! I dont feel so bad now. :-)
