Oh Christmas Tree...

This is the first year that we got a real Christmas tree. We decided to go to a farm where you can pick out and cut down your own. They had an adorable little sled for Reeve to sit in. The sun was already down, so it was very, very cold...brrr...but so much fun!!! They handed out candy canes which the kids thought was great (first one of the season is always very exciting :o)This will definately be something we take the kids to do every year.

My favourite shirt


Well.... I knew the day was coming. It was my favourite. It was a few sizes too big, covered in paint stains, the cuffs hanging on my a thread, zipper broken, washed till it was thread bare and thin ...anybody else have one of these kind of shirts? Maybe a favourite hat? Pants? PJ's? The one thing you put on when you were sad, want to be comfy, etc... Well, I threw out my favourite shirt today. I have tried several times in the past but have always gone and dug it out again. I'm hoping this post will be therapeutic -perhaps I will look back it whenever I fell the need...either way...it was a tough thing to do :o)
