Well, December 1st is here and thanks to Anne, my tree is up. This tree was purchased by one of my coop classes at RFHS. They collected money from everyone in the room ($3 and some change) and then sent a representative to Castaways for the sole purpose of getting us a tree. As you can see it is delightful. If you recall, last year the tree was toppled and shattered by Buttons and Bo, then only being kittens, on the 23rd. I feel they have matured and believe we can make it until the 25th without any tree disasters. For added insurance, there are very few breakable ornaments on this season's tree. I will now suggest that someone start a pool to see how long before this becomes a tumbling tannenbaum. The count down begins.
Also, on a completely different note, I would like to make mention that tonight I went out for coffee with friends and the City of Rockport put on a fire works show. I've heard of Christmas in July, but not the other way around. It was fun.
Bo starts his investigation.....the clock is ticking.

Catherine - your tree is BEAUTIFUL!!! I hope it stands all the way to New Year's.
Merry Christmas!
Love,

That photo really makes Bo's behind look fat. Tell him that I won't pass it around. I hate it when my backside is photographed and then the photo is shared (which is ... well never, actually).
Btw-your tree is fabulous! I'm still in the middle of birthdays (Leanna yesterday, Mike today, and Mia next Friday). THEN we spread out the festivities. I'm always excited to get it going since I used to do it right after Thanksgiving.
Btw-happy Thanksgiving! I'm thankful for friends like you!

Oh...and I foresee your tree lasting as long as you want it to. After all, even if a tree falls, it can always get back up and be successful (isn't that a scripture somewhere?).

the tree looks great. very traditional with a touch of hispanic flavor with the colorful serape around the bottom. Poor Bo. He doesn't have a big butt. He's a big boy. I know these things because I am a big girl. :)
P.S. I forgot to sign the message above.

The skirt in one word....ignunt, but everything else is lovely.
Igunt? Excuse me, but maybe that is all I have. Well, it's not, I do have a grey satin tree skirt. It has bejewels all over it. TACKY!
But my thought is soon the bottom of my tree will be so full with gifts from those who love me that no one will see the skirt...which by the way I like.
