Okay, so the tree Bill brought me wasn't the biggest, fullest tree on the mountain but it was cute in that "A Charlie Brown Christmas" type of way. It had a small amount of flimsy and spaced out branches, it was skinny and a little lop-sided but I was determined to full fill it's "Christmas tree destiny".
The Christmas tree destiny is based on a Christmas play I did in the 2nd grade. The play was called "The Little Tree's Christmas Gift" and was about a little pine tree in a Christmas tree lot for sale. All the Christmas trees have been sold except three. Picking up the Little Tree, the shop owner says, "This little tree is too scraggly, it will never sell. We might have to sell it for firewood." Of course, this makes the Little Tree feel very sad inside. The other trees made fun of his size and on Christmas Eve, he was the only tree left... until Santa comes to the rescue to full fill Little Tree's christmas destiny. He is brought to the North Pole and adorned with lights and ornaments!
Kory and I went to Walmart and got a few decorations (of course very small and light ones). We decorated the tree as best as we could and I have to say it looks pretty cute :) and smells great in our little apartment!!!!
