Weekend Snapshot: tree is finally up
…for the very first time in our five years here in the United States, we bought our very first ever tree…one that is taller than a 2 ft. pine that is:]
…and last night, my daughter S was so excited giving me a hand with putting it up , cleaning, opening trim boxes, hanging trims and finally setting the star on top and lighting it up! this was really her request. a ‘taller’ tree now that we had enough space for it…and i know she is really happy.
and so i am also happy that with the remaining 10 days til christmas, we’ve finally set up our Christmas Tree! yay! i just think it still needs more reds and silvers…which is the color scheme i chose for this year. actually it’s reds and shades of whites with silver, clear and opaque white, but i love the glass ones most of all.
a few more decor shopping to snazz up the house and some more for presents plus some baking for give-aways, and we’re up for some tuxedo part-aying!!!

The kids are begging me to get them a tree. But it’s been so rainy lately that I don’t want to be outside picking one.
