I do believe in fairies, I do, I do!

I got

my Xmas

spirit back. Yeah!

I know for all you scrooges

out there, this may

seem trivial, but to me

it means alot. It came in the

form of a free Xmas tree, two to be exact.

I picked up my very cute nephews

from school yesterday and thought

it would be fun to go and look at the trees.

So we went, while we were walking around we heard

how they were going to throw

away a whole trailer full of trees. So

we go over to check them out and the gentleman

tells me, he is going to write them off and I could have them

if I wanted, but they probably won't last until Xmas.

*Poof*, a little twinkle came over me and I declared

that with a lot of love and water they would be just fine. Well

he looked at me like I was nuts and walked away. Luckily, I had Chad's

work truck with me and I pulled it up to the trailer and threw two beautiful trees in the back. We pulled out of the lot, tires squealing, feeling like it was too good to be true. I got home and cut a ton of branches off of them, sawed the trunk way up and gave them lots of *love* and water. Then I called a friend over, who had also been in need of a tree, and gave her the other one. *BAM*, there it was,

that old wonderful feeling came back with a

vengeance. So today, now that it's sat for a

night, we are going to decorate our tree. We are

also going to start the baking, and the

Xmas carol singing, the crafts, and the gift giving.

Watch out Ebenezer.
