Oh Christmas Tree, oh Christmas tree

We put up our very first official Christmas tree this weekend.  We normally go to Illinois for Christmas so there is no point in putting one up every year.  The first year we were married we decorated a palm tree we had.  I actually really liked it. So unique!

She had more energy than she knew what to do with...and that's saying a lot for her.  So, check it out. I think we did pretty good for our first time:
