That may be pushing it. But I'm definitely looking at second week of November next year... Again, the time and effort deserves more time to admire. I realize that now.

Our friends run a lot off of Vets in Metairie. Perino's always has a nice selection.

Will post some pics later. I'm so damn excited. This is my favorite part of getting ready for the holiday!

Got our trees! We're letting the flocked one open tonight because the branches haven't all dropped. We plan to add lights & decorate tomorrow night.

The one with lights is in our bedroom. For some reason, it has an off color sport in the picture but in person it doesn't look like that.

I'm jealous!

Did you put the lights up yourself? I have a 2 story and have no desire to climb up to put up lights haha lights only in front of house.

I think I need to go to Lowe's for more lights now...

So far I've only dolled up the bushes. Went to go do the roof line and found that my extension ladder is a couple feet shy from me *safely* reaching the ridge. Gotta grab my neighbor's and finish it up hopefully today.

Nice! We'll be tossing this year's tree on our "old" Land Cruiser this weekend. We have a local tree farm a couple miles from the house.
