Deck The Halls

The first weekend of December brought some really cool weather. The colder weather put us in the Christmas Spirit and we decided that our house needed some decorations.
After a trip to the dollar store to get some supplies we were ready to go.

Tara was the creative genius behind our decorative choices. It just wouldn't be Christmas without a tree. Evergreens are in short supply here in Canberra and for anyone who has tried to get a tree home on the roof of their car just imagine what we would have gone through to get a tree home on the bus. So left with no other choice (unlike my parents who made the very poor decision to get a fake tree * sigh) we got this lovely 2$ tree. It had to be unfolded from the plastic package when we got it home. I didn't have high hopes for it but it turned out awesome.

Since our initial decorations we have added all the wonderful cards we have received to the display. Thank you very much to everybody for thinking of us.
