I’m a big fan of having a real Christmas tree in the house. We got going on it a little bit late this year, but we finally tracked down a tree about a week ago. In a week, our tree has not sucked up any water, but still looks as fresh as ever–which makes me wonder if somehow we got duped into buying a fake tree.

It is also far less prickly than trees usually are.

Although if it was a fake, I don’t think there would be as many strangely ugly branches on it.

In other news, it’s almost Christmas!
