Decking the Halls

Seeing as how it's December 26th and all, thought now would be a good time to post pictures from our holiday preparations. Better late than never I guess.
I was freting about where, when, and how we'd get a tree this year as we gave up fake trees a few years back and didn't yet know the Italian Christmas tree supply and demand curve, but it was actually a very easy process. The nursery just down the street from us got a shipment of both cut and live potted trees the first weekend of December, so we walked down the street after borrowing our Landlord's son's wagon and picked a little winner. It's not big (which is good cause it had to fit under our stairs) but it's our little potted tree. The kids were eager this year to help hang ornaments until they learned from experience that this tree has the world's sharpest needles. Seriously, it's painful. I had to wear Steve's work gloves to get the lights and ribbon and ornaments on. Oh and my plan that a potted tree will shed less needles than a cut tree was wrong, very, very wrong!!!
