So last year, right after Ryan got out of the hospital (on our way home, really) we stopped in at Home Depot in Spokane. Let me tell ya, nothing puts a gal more in the Christmas mood than signing discharge papers at a major children's hospital. And even though our car was JAM packed, JD and I stood in an ice-cold parking lot very gingerly packing this Christmas tree into the holes of our already-too-full car:
I love it. It's nothing real fancy but I love it. It has red berries on it. Well, actually they are orange but JD spray painted them red for me. What a guy, huh? So while I was blog-readin' and admiring this fabulous tree, my oldest boy was keepin' himself occupied:

What cha doin' Ryanie?
He said he was making a 'store'- you know, the kind you can get in but not out of? Sounds sorta Wal-Martish to me.

Have I told you how much I look forward to reading your blog? No matter how I am feeling, it always puts a small on my face and I laugh. Ryan cracks me up!
Lis~ I am so thankful that you and your family are home and healthy this holiday season. Your tree looks beautiful and JD's pic of him dancing totally made me smile. You have one great guy and you deserve every ounce of him. Merry Christmas friend!
