Today I sent a text to the boys while they were at
school and asked them to meet me at the Christmas tree area at
school and asked them to meet me at the Christmas tree area at
Lowe's after school so we could pick out a tree for the
living room and one for upstairs, too!
Our text thread was silent for a few hours before Gigs texted back.
"Can we get a treat too?"
I, of course, said YES, knowing full well that I'd want one too.
I needed their strong muscles to help me load it up in the truck.
So grateful for them!
At the check-out, I noticed a can of faux snow and grabbed a couple.
I had this vision of my tree flocked just like the ones
in Utah. After the tree was up, I began spraying.
When every last ounce of the spray was gone, the tree looked like someone
had sprinkled dust on its limbs instead of thick white snow.
It wasn't what I had envisioned at all.
But turns out I liked it even though everyone was dubious.
