Our Christmas Tree
Rebecca and I were looking for a cheap way to decorate for Christmas since it is our first Christmas away from home. So this is what we came up with:
We went to Zeller's (our new favorite store since it is just 30 seconds away from our house and the no one shops there) and they have a 75% off sale on lights so we bought a couple of strings of lights and some ornaments and decorated one of my many house plants.

A Christmas Meme
It's beginning to look alot like Christmas. Lots of snow has been falling and it's soooo cold. Here is a Christmas meme.
Eggnog or Hot Chocolate? Hot chocolate... Now would be good. Really good.
Does Santa wrap the presents or leave them open under the tree? Nope my parents killed off Santa here at our house, so in compensation for his untimely demise all presents are wrapped. Not well, but they are wrapped.
Coloured Lights on a tree or white? I prefer coloured.
Do you hang Misletoe? Nope.
When do you put your decorations up? A couple of days before Christmas...We just picked up decorations last Saturday's.
What is your favorite Holiday Dish? Either Sugar Cookies or Stuffing.
Favorite Holiday Memory as a Child? Baking Christmas cookies with my mom and caroling
Do you open a gift on Christmas Eve? In keeping with our not-at-all-traditional traditions we open all our presents on Christmas Eve.
How do you decorate your Christmas tree? Well look at my post yesterday and you cansee our tree.
Snow. Love it or Hate it? If I have to drive in it or shovel it..I hate it. but it grows on me
Can you ice skate? Nope
What is your favorite Holiday Dessert? Apple Pie
Candy Canes. Yum or Yuck? Yum, I love them, just not to many.
Favorite Christmas Show? While it is not a Christmas-y show, but I love Anne of Green Gables and they have it on TV this time of the year
