My first Christmas tree.

So here it is, my very first REAL Christmas tree. Since moving out of my family home nearly five years ago, I have never been able to have a real tree until this year.

At my first apartment, my roommate was a bitch and didn't want to have to "deal" with a tree even though I told her I would be responsible for it. Until recently, I was sharing my current apartment with two cats (both of whom weren't mine). I was told by my roommies that trees and cats don't mix. For two weeks now, we've been completely cat-free and I couldn't be more thrilled.

My roommie Jill and me picked up this beauty Saturday afternoon and by Sunday night it looked like this!! Call me biased, but I think it's the most perfect Christmas tree there ever was!! I wish you could see it in person because it really is the prettiest!!
