We are venturing out to get the tree tomorrow night or Sat. morning. Can NOT wait! We were never able to really go out and cut our own tree where we grew up, so last year was such a special treat for the kids (and me!) to wander around the tree farm and pick that "perfect" one to bring home. We are going back to the same place this year and are making it a tradition. Anyone out there get two trees? I am trying to convince the fam that we NEED two, you know, one for each level, right?!
Today I did a lot of cleaning so that we could focus on decorating over the weekend. We are hosting hubby's work holiday party next weekend so I've lots to do! I'm off to get the kiddos to bed now. I'll leave you with a pic of my gorgeous and super duper lovable kitty, Tad. He makes me smile every time I look into those blue eyes.

edited to add: By the way, isn't there a way to subscribe to certain blogs? You know, so you can get updates when they post? I'd love for someone to tell me how!

Brandy, I wanted to let you know you're the winner of my "Box of Handmade Treasures" over at my blog: http://queenofperseverance.blogspot.com. Send me an email with your snail mail address and I'll send the goodies to you. Thanks for visiting my blog and entering the contest!
By the way, Tad is gorgeous. I have two Himalayan cats and he reminds me of my tortie point, Wendy.
Ok, your cat is gorgeous.
And I use Google Reader to subscribe to blogs. It's really so user friendly (like all of Google's stuff) that I found it entirely painless to get started--unlike Bloglines and Feedburner and some of the other reader services.
I say go for the two trees. I also have been tempted to have two. One in the living room that would be more "formal" and on downstairs in the family room with our eclectic collection of ornaments.
Merry Christmas :)
