The Christmas trees are in at Joeten (the "Department" store that is also the grocery store). And if you were to believe the radio advertisements, "Christmas just isn't the same without a fresh tree from Joeten."
Here's a closer look at the prices (click on picture to enlarge).....
No $50 Christmas tree lots here on the island.
I think that our Christmas will be just fine with our free artificial tree that is almost as old as I am. We spent some time yesterday putting up said free tree and getting the lights on it. It is sans ornaments for a while, we want Connor to get used to it without breaking all of the ornaments immediately.
(Psssst, those are fake presents under our tree. We use them every year that way it doesn't look so lonely under there until we actually get a couple of real presents under there.)
I also did something today that I am hoping becomes a routine...at least for the next 6 months. I met up with Deece again for a Mom's knitting & coffee time. Yay! Her little girl is just as cute as can be and is exactly how I imagined her.
Peace.
P.S. Gayle, it isn't a typo that you read. We plan on trying again in April-ish 2008 : )

I love the artificial tree.
And I hope it will be a routine too. :) 6 months really isn't that long....why didn't we start sooner??
Your tree looks great so do your scarves and shawl, and Connor what a cutie stepping out on his own, they are not babies long enough, my baby is already four.
Your tree looks beautiful!
