real christmas tree. i love real christmas trees. i love that we weren't planning on getting one and did anyway. that ment the "boring" decorations were left and i love it.(truman was asleep while we decorated. we left the bottom 1/3 pretty bare. hence lots of climbing on stools.)
this time we took dad. we got suckered into buying a christmas tree, it was so fun!! and we played for hours in the gorgeous weather. texas in the winter is wonderful, not so chirstmas-y looking but wonderful. we really need lots more hay and some rope around here.
