And then here's a picture of the cute amaryllis plant that Marcus bought me. We got to plant the bulb and watch it grow, which I didn't think it would do, so we were pleasantly surprised by how nice it turned out!

Deck the Halls (well, just the one room...)
We put up our Christmas tree last night, since the living room was finally clean enough to be decorated ;). It was pretty darn exciting, we had to put the two parts of the tree together, and then plug in the lights. The tree is cute, I knew it was only 4.5 feet before we put it up, but I was still surprised at how short it is! But cute! It was fun decorating our first tree together. I know you're all dying to see how it looks, so here are some pictures! (you can also see our entertainment center that Marcus sanded down and we re stained together - the stain was darker than we thought it would be, but we still like it...)

Awwww, I like your tree :) your very first one...also, cute ornament that you made to commemorate the event. White lights always look so good, like sparkling stars (aren't I deep?).
Also, I am amazed at that gorgeous plant! you actually planted the bulb and THAT happened?? Wow. Hmmm...though your last post I guess already shows that you two are pretty good at growing things... ;) And good job on the entertainment center, it looks very nice!
Yeah, way to go on the entertainment center, it looks great! I am also amazed by the plant, it's beautiful! Not to sound shocked, because I'm not. But all the way up from a bulb, those flowers are gorgeous!
Thanks, Fiona, but I didn't actually make that ornament, Mom bought it for us at a craft fair in Boerne...although, after she paid for it I thought "those were really easy to make, we could have just done it ourselves..."
Wow, I totally thought it even looked like your handwriting! Well, at least it was Mom who paid $$ for it ;) no, it's very cute! and, besides, where would Tara get the energy to actually make her own ornament nowadays???
What lovely pictures, and the dog also. I am so glad that our children know each other so well. Great job on the tree and flower.
