I think this is the earliest we've put up a tree! I've been using the same ornaments for the past 5 years and was not looking forward to putting them on the tree so I went to my favorite store, Target, to buy some new ornaments to inspire me. I knew I wanted a Hello Kitty ornament and I used target.com's "find in store" feature to see if I should bother at the Target that is right up the street from me. And I was right, they were out of stock. But the Target two cities over was in stock so I decided to take a trip out there. Once I got to the Christmas section, I found the Hello Kitty ornament and it was THE LAST ONE! Hooray! Here is the cutie
Then I got a duck to represent the carnival ducks we had at our wedding (and keeping with the red and pink theme)
Whenever I see this ornament, I think of Lil Wayne's Lollipop song, totally inappropriate!
Whole tree and Meatball
