Our Christmas Tree?

When we moved to AZ we brought only a handful of decorations knowing we were short on space, but we made sure we brought all of our ornaments because we all know how important the Christmas Tree is, right?

Well, we didn't bring the tree!!! So we thought that as it got closer to Christmas when someone from the family came out the could bring it. Well every time someone came-they brought baby stuff instead.

Now its Christmas, we have no tree here, we can't justify buying one, and well there really is no space. So we have the ugly plant (no offense to my mother-in-law) that my MIL gave to Brent to use a decoration until we moved here. The trunk of this plant looks like it has camel or gorilla hair on it!!! And it won't even stand up by itself!!!

And so the plant becomes the tree. We put it on the table, wrap lights around it and start to put on some of the smallest ornaments, no go the leaves start breaking. The only thing that would work was 3 snow flake ornaments. So off to Walmart I went to buy more snow flake ornaments.



Ava's first Christmas Tree



Katrena with the plant (AKA the Christmas Tree) she so desires to throw away.

I have know idea why everything in the beginning is underlined, I can't get it to not be. It probably has something to do with typing with one hand and a little foot that keeps hitting keys.

I love it. We had a tree that was similar the first year of our marriage. Though it wasn't pretty it's a good memory. I had the same problem with the underline thing when I was blogging through 'Opera' weird.
