christmas tree

even though we won't be home for christmas this year (we plan on spending the holiday with my parents on the western slope), i really wanted to put up our tree and make the house feel festive.  although, i am not doing as much as i probably would if we were actually going to be spending christmas here.  i've been wanting to try a white tree forever and was completely inspired by rachel's  (smile and wave) instagram images of her white christmas trees.  i planned on waiting until next year but realized that our current tree was in pretty bad shape.  walmart actually had white trees for only $39!  can't beat that kind of a deal.  so, a white tree it is.  i actually really love how all of our colorful ornaments looks against the white background.  the bird seems pretty pleased with it too.
