For the first time ever, Eric and I got a Christmas tree! We're not too fond of the idea of chopping down a tree and then tossing it in the trash after a couple of weeks, and (sorry, Mom) a fake one just doesn't seem right, so we decided to go for a potted plant that could stay indoors with us year-round. This Norfolk Island Pine was pretty inexpensive and we're hoping that it will be around to decorate next Christmas! The (small) number of ornaments we have, plus one strand of lights, filled up the tree just perfectly. Under the tree are our first gifts--hand-made cards from our 3rd-grade friend, Raymond that say "Don't open me til Christmas" on the front. We promise that we won't.

Hey, great! Maybe you can use it again nest year!

Your place looks great! I love your tree plan. I agree about the fake trees, but with a toddler that might pull it over at any second, its the best choice for now. And no needles! Hope you are continuing to enjoy Advent!
