I am thankful for Home Depot




Serioulsy! It took 2 days for Nathan and I to find our live Christmas tree, why????.....well because every where we went wanted to charge us a minimum of 65 dollars (for the shortest tree in the lot). However if we wanted to 6-7 foot noble fir then we would at least pay 80-100. What?! I was about ready to give up on the idea of a Christmas tree. Until dun dun dun dun! Home Depot comes in and saves the day! I found the perfect Noble Fir 8 foot tree for only 35 dollars!!!! yes thats right. So maybe there lot did not have Reindeer and Santa and the Charm other lots had to offer, but hello! 40 -50 dollars saved on a Christmas tree was well wort it. So that is my happy story I just about cried over! Just thought I would share. Oh! And did I mention how heavenly my tree smells! It is incredible, it truly feels like the start of the Christmas season now!


Thanksgiving was awesome this year! Thanks for all of you who came and shared the evening at our home! We had a blast! This is the 3rd year I have made Thanksgiving dinner at our home, for family. I have a few pics of the event and just some random cute pics of the girls (as always :).


Hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! And a great Christmas season!

P.S. I am looking for some new Christmas music to add to our collection, so if you would be so kind as to tell me some of your favorites that would be wonderful! Thanks
Love Lauren

Adorable pictures of your girls! How nice of you to have everyone to your place!

I would love to have a real Christmas tree... but we figured it was just more economical to buy a fake one, so we did last year. Kinda sad. How do you keep your girls away from the ornaments. MJ is driving me crazy with them!

I love your tree, and I am so happy I saw this post before we went and paid 50 bucks for a tree. We are SO going to Home Depot this year.
