Merry Christmas

Our sweet little tree! We were not going to do a tree this year and the closer we got to christmas the more i wanted a tree! So driving down Lombard there was a fella selling trees. All trees $10. I picked the smallest puniest tree and said, you really want $10 for it? He said they are all $10. That one over there,as he points to a nice, pretty, full, big tree that is a a $20 tree for only $10. I said I don't want that one. I want this one but not for 10, i'll give you $5. SOLD! so we got a sweet tree. Mara and i sat around and made ornaments out of yarn and scrap copper. tried to make popcorn but it got burnt! and here is our tree! the tree stand was too big for it we had to stuff it with a towel!
