It's Christmas at the Burleson's House!

So, I couldn't even wait for Thanksgiving to be over. I had to put up my very first tree all of my own at our house. So much fun! We had been looking at this tree at Target for as long as they have had the trees on display. So on Wednesday night before Thanksgiving, Chris and I just had to go ahead and put it up! I was so excited and we love having it on! We also are really glad to have it already up because we will be leaving for our Honeymoon on the day after Christmas, so we have that whole week after Christmas that we won't be enjoying it. Why not put it up a little early huh? Heck, I would have put it up sooner. aha. Anyway, here's the tree in the living room.


You seriously don't even need any over head lights or lamps on. This baby puts out some light.

I decided today not to get out with the "Crazies" and do some Black Friday shopping. (Note: I can call the people who shop on Black Friday "Crazies" because many of them are my friends and family) However, I had this feeling inside that I just had to have a Memphis Tiger tree in my house. I had it at my mom's so I gotta have it at my house! Today, Chris and I went to my mom's to borrow a ladder (for tomorrow hanging Christmas lights, ha) and Chris and I stopped in Hobby Lobby. They had the most perfect skinny Christmas tree for my kitchen, and hello, BONUS everything Christmas in that store was 50% off! So we got it, along with some Tiger inspired decor. Check it out!

So, I'm seriously in love with this tree now. Also, I have a dear friend who made me a "Just Married" ornament that was Tiger inspired so of course it had to be on this tree. LOVE IT!


That's the front and back. She's making them for anyone and she's not just doing them for newlyweds either. She's so talented. Leave me a comment if you wanna hook up with her on Facebook and get your own custom ornament. I know I will be getting more!

So that's all for tonight, tomorrow I teach Jazzercise in the morning and then maybe a pedicure?? I really want one before I go back to school. After that, I must hurry home to supervise the hanging of the Christmas lights. Chris has already complained that the neighbor already has his up and he swears ours are going to look better. Clark Griswald look out....ha!

Hope your Thanksgiving was a blessed one,

Mrs. KB
