So my wonderful weekend of spending time with some best friends has come to a rather rainy close. However, over the weekend I happened to purchase the most amazing Christmas CD: VeggieTunes Christmas Album. Yes, VeggieTales, I still listen and enjoy the voices of Larry and Mr. Lunt. My favourite so far is  Donuts for Benny. (Click the link to check it out).

The CD was only one highlight of my weekend... GASP! You're thinking She can have more than one wonderful event in a single wonderful weekend! Ya, basically, I can. And the second greatest (not second as in runner up, but second as in the 2nd one I'm telling you about) event of my weekend was decorating our apartment with all of my Christmas decorations! Yes, ladies! I WON the feat against my anti-Christmas-until-December-1st husband. The tree is up! So I owe you all for petitioning along side me :)

And because I'm the victor, I just have to share a few pictures with you all:

So the tree with a few basic trimmings: Ribbon and lights. 
That's right, Mom, ribbon. I learn well.




Finished tree! Complete with my love of traditional angel tree topper and coordinating ornaments. That's right, Mom, coordinated. Again, I learned well.


My lovely wrapped bedroom door. You'll notice the colour combination: Purple and gold to match the tree :)
