Ok, we're ready!

Well the weather outside is(n't) frightful (yet)

But inside, it's just delightful!

And as long as we've no place to go,

Let it snow let it snow let it snow!

It's not snowing yet, in fact it was 11 degrees today. (Or was that yesterday? Who can keep track of what day it is! Not me, please refer to 2 blogs prior to this one.) BUT DID THAT STOP US? no way. We saw a sale, and we pounced! We acted! We Purchased Our Christmas Tree. We then Purchased Lights And Decorations. And then, THEN, we came home with our tree tied to the roof of our little tiny Tracker, and we Put The Tree Up. Yes. This is not a miss print. Take a look:

I think I'm going to change the star. We got LED lights for the branches and that white glows with a bluish tinge. It doesn't match the yellowish tinge to the regular lights of the star. Here it is in the dark:

Oooh Aahhh. Looks kinda like the night sky up in Yellowknife when the solar winds are a-blowin. Pictures of the real thing can be viewed (along with many more great photos including those of a cute baby and nifty parents) at http://livinginyellowknife.blogspot.com

And these cuties I got from the dollar section of the grocery store yesterday, and put them up right away as well. Notice each one represents a member of my beautiful family.

So November 8th is kinda early for a Christmas Tree, isn't it? I mean, the month isn't even into double digits yet. Oh well! Jake was feeling Christmas-y and I jumped on it before the Grinchification starts. He can be prone to a very grumpy Grinchy attitude towards Christmas. I think it has to do with his family being so far away.
