Twas the Days Before Christmas

Twas the Days Before Christmas and all through the house, nothing was Christmasy, not even my spouse.  So we bought a permit and climbed up a mount, to pick a fair tree and finally we fount.  It was full, it was green, and there arose such a clatter, a man with an axe and a whole lot of laughter.  Then it was off down the steep mount, with a man amount like a sleigh, he wooshed and he swooshed ahead of his wife who said "Hey!" 

(It was like Bear Grylls Man Vs. Wild)  And that is how we got our 1st real Christmas tree together!  It was way fun!  Then Ann and I made popcorn/cranberry garland.  Mine took 6 hours.  It was so nice looking though.  Totally worth it.

Mid December we had the annual work party for the dentist office at our boss's home.  We had a gingerbread house contest, boys vs. girls.  We girls did the mini dental office with a root canal in process, while the boys got really creative and made a trailer home with an old car up on blocks, beach lounge chairs, and even tires on the roof.  So funny.  Then we ate the most amazing Chinese food.  Delicious!  After dinner, we proceeded with rock band, where I sang horribly and Michael got into a groove on the drums.  We were there till nearly midnight it was so entertaining.
