Tree

So I have this tree I bought when we lived in England. Got it on sale and dragged the sucker home. As I set it up this year I noticed all the needles falling off. You can see straight through it but I can't seem to buy a new one! They are so expensive. I was pouting over this dilemma (even on sale trees are over $100) while I was decorating the other day. Sophie and Zoe were "helping" and having a grand time. I overheard them talking to eachother and this is what they said:
S: This goes here
Z : OK! (all excited) over here!
s: Now we put the tar ( star) on, it goes near the top. I will do it. I am bigger.
z: Yeah I do the candy cans!
s: Oh Zoe lets put this one on ( all near the same spot)
z ooooooh thats boooootiful!!! ( a sparkly snowflake)
s. there. This is the most beautifulest tree ever. (Sighing and admiring her work)
z. oh yes! I love it!
So It might be a tree worthy of Charlie Brown but to two little girls it is the mostest beautifulest thing they have ever seen. The lights are on the wall switch so they take turns making it light. I guess this is why I still haven't bought a new tree!!
Happy Decorating!
