O Christmas Tree


Now that school is done, the holidays can officially begin. We bought our Christmas tree today, from the Christmas market at Nation (and got ripped off, I later noticed at the grocery store. Oh well!), and spent the afternoon drinking Baileys and trimming the tree.

Also, it snowed on Thursday! And again on Friday! And it's supposed to snow again on Sunday! And it's freezing cold!! Winter is truly here, and the snow is actually sticking around, the first time I've seen that since we've been here, and even I have to admit that it's quite pretty. No picture, I keep forgetting to take one until it's too dark outside (not only is it really cold, it's that fun time of year where the sun disappears at 4pm and doesn't make another appearance until late the next morning when you're already inside working).

And lastly, and maybe most importantly, can anyone guess what our lovely tree is standing in?

Howard knows what the tree stand used to be and where it used to live! He is disqualified from guessing, however. You have a beautiful tree.
