our christmas tree + red and green things

B and I have talked about getting a Christmas tree, but there really isn't any room in our apartment. Like, none. He suggested a table-top tree, but to me that doesn't really count as a "tree." So...we hadn't gotten around to anything. I was sort of sadly accepting that we wouldn't have a tree this year (last year we decorated a palm tree, but our apartment was bigger).

The other day I saw a Christmas light tree over at this awesome blog I follow. I showed it to B and he said "oh, that's cool." I agreed. And the next day I came home from work to this:

My husband rocks.

Also, in the spirit of Christmas, here are some pictures of red and green things I found around the house. I was bored and inspired, a fantastic combination, and decided to see how many pairs I could find. I was surprised by how much I could find.
Merry Christmas from my house

That red notebook says "Calculus 3 and Differential Equations." Yeah. That's right.

p.s. my dog hates me

  5. Wow, he really does rock. That's pretty amazing!
    Love this idea - you've prompted me to go take random photos of red and green stuff, which might be difficult because I don't think there's a lot of it around... maybe a pic of my Christmas tree, which took a lot less effort to construct.

    1. You might be surprised! I didn't think we had that much and the more I looked I was really surprised. It's not like we are a super christmas color loving family, so I thought it was funny that we had so much.
