Oh Christmas Tree...




I have not blogged in a while.
It is coming on Christmas, in just 3 days! It is bitter sweet when Christmas day arrives. The next day, the season's celebration is coming to a close and so is the year.
Since this Christmas season has been especially busy and crazy, my family did not put our Christmas tree up until last night. We were hoping we would be getting a real tree, since we are in a new home and this is our first Christmas here. Not to mention, we usually put our fake tree up- so we have not had a real tree in a while.
We went on our tree expedition last night, in hopes of finding a tree that is not: too full, dry, or expensive. We searched for a Christmas tree lot in Costa Mesa, but they had shut down for the year. We then headed to Home Depot, but their trees were pretty scary. We ventured off to another place, and lets just say the Charlie Brown Christmas tree was the best looking one there.
We decided to call it a night after all.
And this morning, we put our fake tree in the corner next to the fire place. We also baked some yummy cookies. We will be decorating our tree this evening, enjoying each other's company.
And even though it is only 3 days before Christmas- we have been reminded once again of what Christmas is really about.
:) Merry Christmas readers!
