White Christmas

First of all let me start by saying I've never, ever, had a fake Christmas tree before.  I've always turned my nose up at them, having been raised in a home allowing only the real deal.  However for the past three years or so, I have been longing for a fake pink Christmas tree.  I saw one in a magazine once and fell in love.  Someday it will be mine, but it's not in the budget this year.  And also, I think it might clash with my pink walls.  So I got settled on this pretty white number here. 
One of my major Christmas tree dilemmas was always to pick out ornaments that didn't blend in with the green tree.  Now I don't have to worry about that -- everything looks good on white!  I love the way the colors pop.  (p.s., like how bright and sunny it is?  Gotta love San Diego.)
Notice those owls nestled in there?  Well today I came home to a bunch of turned down branches and a missing owl.  I have sneaking suspicion as to who took it.  It's not this one below, but her sister.  She is a little mischief maker.
So, I'm not turning my nose up at fake Christmas trees anymore, but I do miss that wonderful fresh pine Christmas tree smell.  Life's tough... you can't have it all ;)
