We totally scored this year buying our Christmas tree. There is a "used again" store in the next town over called H2O (Help and Hope to Others). It is basically a local Goodwill, except instead of handicap people working there, it's recovering meth heads. Wish I was kidding. Anyway, someone set up trees in the parking lot and were only charging $5 for them. We got a gorgeous tree! The girls had a great time unpacking the ornaments and hanging them on the tree. Heidi had a great time ripping them off the tree and breaking them. We kept moving the ornaments higher and higher until finally the top 1/3 of our tree is decorated. The bottom 2/3rds has one measly string of lights and few plastic ornaments that we wired to the tree. Heidi still tries hourly to rip them off, but she hasn't succeeded yet! I love the smell of a fresh Christmas tree! It's beginning to feel like Christmas.
