I'm dreaming of a black Christmas...

isn't it pretty?
Here is my (undecorated) black Christmas tree! I haven't touched it at all since we assembled it this afternoon, but it looks pretty good as is. You have no idea how much grief I went through trying to track down one of these trees - Adam and I decided we wanted it Friday, and then I spent the whole weekend looking online and calling stores trying to find one. They are apparently very popular. And then on Sunday, the display was available at the local Wal-Mart and then I went back - poof! - it had been sold. I didn't even know you could buy the displays!
In the end, I got lucky - I stopped in another Wal-Mart on my way home from my practicum, and they still had the display. So I snatched it up, stuck in my car, and here it is!
It is very early to have a Christmas tree up, but Adam wanted to see it put together, so we decided to assemble it, and so... here it is!

  1. looks nice, can't wait to see it with silver balls and stars and other ornaments on it. Also, the biggest pains of christmas trees are: stringing and unstringing the lights, the needles dropping on the floor, remembering to add water every day.
