Happy Thanksgiving! It'll be very sad and strange not to be around family for the first time ever. But we do have some church family to spend a Thanksgiving meal with, and we're very happy about that. We bought a nice big turkey before we realized a family was inviting people over, so we're going to have our Thanksgiving meal Saturday!
But that's not all, as we were getting into the holiday mood, I decided it fitting to hike down the mesa trail and chop down a big old Christmas tree.
Well, that's not a terribly big tree, I admit. Plus, I think that carries about a $10,000 fine. So, on a second thought, we decided to go to King Soopers (that's Kroger in West-ese) and pick one up :)! It's about 3 feet tall, and we were quite excited. Evidently these trees sell out quickly because of so many apartments around the area. THEN, we went to Dollar Tree and Target for the decorations. The topper is an angel ornament my (Matt's) granny gave to Shannon last Christmas. Here are a few pictures of its radiance.

Anyway, we miss everyone, and pray you all have a great Thanksgiving!

Merry Christmas Normans! Nice tree; I guess that would save a lot of room and electricity. So is this a real 3-foot tree?
