We have been so behind on Christmas preparations this year. Apparently last year we threw out our tree after the holidays because it was broken? I don't remember that, but I do remember trying to take it apart and the dent in the molding near the stairs as a result (oops!). So, since we missed last year's Christmas sales, we were on the hunt for a new tree at a reasonable price. We saw one we liked, but it was too expensive and we kept checking back to see if it would go down in price. Todd finally went back on the 24th and asked to talk to a manager. When he did, they ended up giving it to us for 70% off - a super steal for such an awesome tree!
Owen wasn't quite sure what to make of it... but surprisingly has essentially ignored it after his first exploration. I love the lights, it is definitely going up early next year so we can enjoy it longer!
Every year, we buy a new ornament for the tree that represents something that has happened to us during the year. We have one for when we bought our house, when Todd starting working for the Department of Corrections, one for my half-marathon, etc. This year's addition...
