New leafy member of our family...

Taking the risk that Barklee will mistake himself for being outside... we decided this would be the year we got our first real Christmas tree.

While growing up, my family had a well-used and well-loved artificial tree, which was nice and better than not having one at all... but I think it was about time that I experienced having a real tree for once. The place already smells pine fresh and ready for the holiday trimmings! :)



We'll see how my tune changes when it's mid January and we realize we have a shedding twig in our living room. :)
