Deck the halls
Adrian and I spent the weekend decorating the house. Christmas is what this house was built for so despite all the turmoil in our lives lately, this, we decided, is a must. We also discussed the possibility of going fake this year. Our fireplace frequently spits embers over our gate and can make Christmas with a real tree somewhat scary. So we had the discussion and decided if we were going to go fake then we needed to go big. We found this 9-foot tree that Adrian really liked at Costco, and even though it's got white lights, which I'm not wild about, it really is pretty awesome. It's got some pretty fancy real-looking branches on the outer edges. It's the most convincing fake tree I've seen and with as much as we spent last year on our very large real tree, this seemed to be a sound investment.

Beautiful! Love your huge tree!
Merry Christmas!
It looks awesome! No decorations for us this year. :( We aren't putting up lights because we are trying to conserve energy (we can't really afford an extra $50 on electricity). And I think I told you about why no tree. Fake trees really are the way to go, especially if you are trying to be green. -Lisa M.-
Beautiful....love the tree!
Did that little elf peeking out from behind the tree in the first picture come with it? :)
Your house really is made for Christmas! I love the cabin look to it.
