Oh Tanenbaum

So I have not put up a christmas tree in years.
I always do festival and am too burned out to do my own.
I decided that this year would be different.

So I went shopping and picked out the perfect tree.
I spend a lot of time looking at trees.
It's a compulsion, eveytime I go into a store that sells trees I have to take a quick peek.
Like I said, lots of trees.

So I found one on sell a few weeks ago and it was perfect.
So Todd went out and got it for me.
And he set it up.

And there it sat for nearly three weeks unitl I had time to decorate it.

I wanted to do somthing different,
something fun,
something us.

So I finally finished, and here it is.........

Confession











So I found this book in a park city boutique a few months ago with my sisters and fell in love.




I love the art work.




I love the story.




And……

I Love, Love, Love, that there is a bite taken out of the back cover.








So, the being an adult who is in love with a children’s book is not the part that I am confessing here.




It’s the fact, that for a nano second, I seriously considered having a child just so I would also have a reason to buy this book.




I wonder what Dr. Spock would think about that?

So this my newest interest,
an artist named Tim Walker.
I just love his images,
whimsical and slightly
haunting.
