oh and one more thing [i put up our tree all by myself]

the title says it all. 

sunday, we i decided that we were putting up a tree. so, after molesting half of the trees at our local lowes store, we settled on this lovely fraiser fir beauty. that i proceeded to decorate all by myself because my two supposed helpers decided to make themselves comfy on the couch. [jerks].

documented in black & white for coolness purposes:

 [the tree fit in my car. not on, in]

 [fluffing]

  ["whatcha doin' mom?"]

  [inspecting the lights]

  [a little bow topper]

  [isn't she a beaut?]

 [tada!]

  [finishing touches]

 [spray painted pine cones - a spontaneous purchase at lowes]

 [the non-helpers]

 [but beau made it up to me]

i gotta tell ya, hanging out in the livingroom by the light of the tree and some candles sure is purdy. job well done, me. [a nice pat on the back].

have you put your tree up yet?
