Christmas Tree!

The past couple years while we were still living in DC, we couldn't get a Christmas tree that we wanted because our place was too small for it. Now that we have more space, we decided to go get a real Christmas tree.

They sell fresh produce, plants, and other specialty items produced on local farms. We thought this place would be a good place to buy our special Christmas tree.

Here we come! There are so many trees in different sizes! Exciting(*´∀｀)

After 30 minutes of being indecisive, we finally choose the one...this is it! They trimmed and cleaned the bottom of the tree, carefully netted it, and tied it on top of our car for us. Ready to go home!

We took advantage of our new place having high ceilings. This tree will look great in the living room (*^_^*)
With our friend Jason's help, somehow we manage to bring the tree in through balcony door...

It became even taller when we placed it in the stand... The tree was very heavy and wiggling a bit, but Papa worked his magic and finally stabilized it...phew...
Look how big it is...It is 9 feet tall!

The hard part is done. Now it's fun time with decoration!
And here is our Christmas tree for 2012!

I just need to wrap all the presents and place them under the tree! 10 days until Christmas. We are so ready!

Here are the doggies that came in for beauty time before Christmas break:

Ziggy: Every time I see him, he is getting bigger and bigger (^^) Now he is officially French Bulldog! The Gingerbread bandanna looks great on him!

Otis is the mommy's boy (*^_^*) He loooooves his mom. I can tell, because he acts exactly how Pocky acts. Adorable❤

Sophie, the Maltipoo: I didn't realize until I finished grooming but doesn't she look like Pretz???
She is a very happy puppy girl but very well behaved on the grooming table for just a puppy. I'm proud of her! Due to excessive mats, unfortunately I had to shave her down this time. Hopefully her hair grow back soon and I can have her in a fluffy puppy cut (・ω<)

I wonder what they wished for Christmas （*^_^*）
