Zippy

This year’s Christmas Tree is named Zippy.

Zippy coincedentally was the name of Aimee’s car – my mother-in-law, before she passed. Zippy still exists out there with a relative.

Zippy makes the 4th named tree we have gotten from Gale’s.

Previous years have included:

Perhaps the strangest thing about buying Christmas Trees based mostly on the name is that he price has stayed the same for 4 years straight. Go Gale’s!

Forrest

School was cancelled for Marceline this morning, so the house is quiet as everyone else is sleeping in. 

I already ran on the treadmill and showered, so I’m having my morning coffee and reading in the quiet.

We bought a tree last weekend.  Her name is Forrest (all the trees had name tags).  I love that our star is a felt star Sam sewed years ago.  It’s a little beaten up but it’s ours.

This is honestly, a nice relaxing way to start the day.

Doesn’t quite make up for more sleep though.
