Christmas Tree Heart Attack!



Okay, it has been many moons since we bought a real tree.  Today we went to Live Oak Tree Farm (also known to everyone in our area as 'The Pumpkin Patch') to pick out a live tree to christen our new home.  Our downstairs is primarily tile and we thought, "hey, why not, it will be easy to clean up any needles"...WRONG...as wrong as a strapless dress with a hot pink bra!  Long story short we bought a live Noble Fir today.  We ended up spending $90!  The tree was 7.5 feet tall.  Is this how much they usually cost or should I have found one of those places that show up one day and disappear just as Santa is making his big arrival?  Lesson learned, next year it is a fakie fake fake!
