(Must hum, Oh Christmas Tree) Oh 5 foot tree, oh 5 foot tree....

This weekend, Abe and I ventured a whopping 1.3 miles to The Home Depot where we purchased our third Christmas tree together, ever. Being that this Christmas sort of snuck up on me, and the fact that I am 6+ months preggo, we decided to go a little bit smaller this year. (Last year, we bought a 9 footer, yes, there was a niner in there, and it filled our living room beautifully.) This year though, we decided to go with a 5-6 foot tree. It looks great in our room and it only took us about 45 minutes to light and decorate. It's not that I became lazy this holiday season, it's more so that I am fat and tired and spend most nights printing labels, recipe cards, and setting up notepads for my company, Between the Sheets Co.. Example: tonight instead of wrapping some gifts to put under aforementioned tree, I am sitting in our office printing and setting up orders. (Which trust me, I totally do not mind! I love it!) Once these recipe cards are complete, I will be heading to bed to watch a TiVo'd episode of The Housewives of Orange County. (This is of course my reward for working so hard...good old fashioned trashy television.)
