So I am finally getting around to blogging about our Tree! (Which we put up the first weekend in December.) This year we had decided not to drag a Christmas tree home with us. Last year we strapped one to the trunk of our big blue boat and brought it home, clear from St. George! It was hillarious! When we got home, Anthony was so busy with finals and work, we ended up going to the tree lot at Smiths Market Place! It's a really pretty tree though and smells so good! Our precious new ornament this year was one that Ashlynn made in school! It made me cry when I opened it! It is my most favorite ornament on the tree! She also got to make a ginger bread house out of graham crackers and was pretty upset when I informed her that it was not edible! That's right, Head Start made the icing with raw eggs! There was a sticker on the tin foil warning parents that it was just a decoration! How dumb!! Even the ginger bread men that they made last week were decorated with cream cheese, so those had a stcker on them telling us we had to refrigerate them. Anything to keep the kids from eating sugar!! What cracks me up is that they decorate them in fruit snacks, chocolate chips, and other sweet treats!! Why no just give them the canned frosting too?!!

Your tree is so pretty! And look at that adorable little girl standin in front of it! Ashlynn looks so proud of her ornament and gingerbread house. She did a really good job. Merry Christmas you guys!
Your tree is way pretty. I love it. I remember the ornimants that you gave mom when you were Ashlyn's age too. Ashlyn's orniment is so cute.
