It is finally up and decorated! The usual tradition in the Kurt family is to go out the day after Thanksgiving and cut down your Christmas Tree. But since I didn't feel like hauling the tree all the way to Memphis, Beth and I had to go out a few weeks later and pick it out down here. We went to this great little tree farm out in Cordova, TN. Not sure why, but trees are much more expensive down here, we put out almost $200 for this one. It looks great though, well worth the money. As a matter of fact we have had alot of people say the tree looks so good that it must be fake.
All of our stockings, except for the dog's, were made by Beth's Grandma. You are officially received into the family when your stocking arrives in the mail. The only person on Beth's side of the family who hasn't received theirs yet is Rudi. Grandma says that she is going to wait a few years because she isn't sure the marriage is going to last (her words, not mine). So hopefully next Christmas Rudi will be part of the Bartman family.

Two hundred dollars!?! For a tree? Is it laced with gold?
Not only has Grandma made and sent me my stocking, but she made it bigger and better than yours because she likes me better. I like your tree by the way, even though it is missing an angel.
