Tree Redeemed





Well, the tree thawed out and it looks great. No fluffing necessary. It only took 6 days to decorate, not the 23rd of December decorating Karen predicted we would be pulling off. We may be a little delayed on all of the festivities but The Beck's get it done, eventually.

Last night we went to the boat parade. This year we ventured out to Howard Amon Park where we actually walked out on the dock and watched the boats from there. It was fun to see the boats up close, but it was SOOOO cold out on the water!!! Kaden loved all the boats honking and the people wishing us "Merry Christmas!"

It was fun but we wasted no time rushing home to enjoy some hot cocoa (with our gingerbread and eggnog creamers). We love that stuff! But what I love even more is when people don't put the lid on the creamer and you "shake before using" but that is another post.

Merry Christmas!!

There's not much of a story other than Jer left lid unlatched and I shook it all over the kitchen and myself...in front of guests. How cute is that.

Your tree truly redeemed itself. I have to admit that when I saw the frozen tree picture, I thought that it was not the most attractive tree I'd ever seen. It looks beautiful now. Sounds like you had a fun weekend!
