Deason and I got to check out some model railroad trains yesterday, and we also got our Christmas tree. We had to make all new ornaments, since we abandoned our old ones when we moved. It cost less than $35 for the tree and all the decorations, and it looks pretty good too. I paid $1 for a big bag of shells and hot glued some ribbons to them...ta-da.... ornaments! I can't take credit for it though, I stole the idea from a woman at work. The hardest part about the whole Christmas tree thing, is making sure the ornaments stay on the tree, Dahlia likes to put them on and take them off, and they don't always make it back on the tree.
The kids and I leave for Florida tomorrow, we needed a reprieve from the cold, plus the tickets were dirt cheap and couldn't be passed up. Chris will stay behind to make sure the tree gets watered and doesn't die. He will be sorry he choose to stay behind when it starts to snow! He will be missed!
