Joy to the Blimp!


I really have been neglecting this blog, but there really hasn't been much excitement since Halloween. We did have a great thanksgiving! We then hiked through the forest to get the perfect christmas tree....after a few hours and some minor injuries, we decided to settle for the next somewhat decent tree. So here is"the blimp" that we finally cut. Hey, at least our house smells like christmas! I was so sick of using those pathetic fake trees that smell like our garage! So, the sad mass that it is, we love our tree!

hahahahaha. Love it Monica. I wish I could have hiked around and yes, even sustained some injuries. That brings back a lot of memories! Alas, we have a fake tree- with some forest scent burning away 24/7. Not the same.

I love the tree! Even if it does look like it should be floating in the Macy's Parade :)

We still haven't figured out what we're going to do. We love fresh trees and always enjoyed them in Oregon, but here? They are pretty expensive in the valley of the sun. Oh, I would so miss the smell though...

At least there's plenty of room underneath for all the presents! :)
