Cabbage and Beef Stew is simmering on the stove. Cornbread is going in the oven after I finish this post. I spent the morning in bed watching movies with my man. The kids are busy creating things and playing rock band. Such a lazy day (well in between I am preparing my lesson for church tomorrow). We did get something accomplished though...we cut down our Christmas tree. After having a fake tree for 7 years, we decided on a real one last year. Someone gave us a real tree for free last year and we scoured our Christmas boxes and found lights. This year, we had to search close to our home. I didn't want to drive all the way out to Newberg/Sherwood to find a tree and I definitely wasn't going to pay 6.95 a foot at Lee's Farms (What a rip off!!)
Tomorrow, while we snack on ham and left-over stuffing, we will be decorating our tree.

I love noble firs. My favorite tree. The last real was a scotch pine and I hated it. I was so mad at that tree all december because it was ugly and because it wasn't a beautiful noble. And then we found out the tree stand had been leaking for 3 weeks while we faithfully filled it up every day and we had to pay $700 to repair the floor. If it had been a noble fir, I might have forgiven it and not gotten a fake.
