Artificial Christmas

Well, we've done it now. We picked up an artificial tree at Canadian Tire today. It's 6.5' tall and prelit with 400 white lights. Normally, I am against artificial things like this, but a real tree is quite a mess, needs to be watered all the time, has to be disposed of afterwards (no tree pickup where we live), and it turns out that Matthew is allergic to the real thing. He was sick the whole time we had the tree in the house last Chrismas.



But don't worry, it's not going up any time soon! They're on sale right now. :-D
