Meet Doug

Doug is the newest addition to our household - Douglas Fir, that is, and he is here to help us celebrate Lex's First Christmas! He hails from Dill's Greenhouse, just across a cornfield or two from our homestead.


When he came to us, he was naked, but we took him in and dressed him up right. Connor even helped - all by himself! Here is the section of the tree that he did. He is really proud of his handiwork, and so am I!


Actually, our tree this year has sort of a theme: personalized ornaments, with a special focus on the "My First Christmas" variety. It is Lex's first Christmas this year, after all. He even already has his first ornament on the tree!


We have several first Christmas ornaments for Connor, and even for Kevin, but sadly, we don't have any for me! I might have to go and raid my parents' decoration boxes and see what I can find from my childhood in order to make our tree complete!
