its beginning to look a lot like x-mas...

...now that we have a christmas tree.

this past weekend we traveled far and wide for our christmas tree.

actually, it was only to our local home depot.

and jack picked our tree out because he thought it looked the "cheapest".

i guess my bargain shopping is paying off.

jack was pretty excited about getting a tree.

my burly man throwing that tree up on one shoulder and showing us who's da boss.

right now that burly man is very sick.

double ear infections and strep throat.

i feel so bad for him.

at least he has the wonderful smell of christmas tree to take in as he lies on the couch in

misery.
