We have this cute little (strong emphasis on the word little) tree in our front yard that we planted last summer. Well, with the last snow storm, this poor little tree darn near snapped in half. This is a picture of the tree before I went to bed. I was too cold to go out and shake the snow off it. When I woke up the next morning, it was bent way over and not shaking it was no longer an option. It is being quite resilient, especially considering that we have it strangled in Christmas lights. Go little tree! Now let's just see if it makes it through the winter. It's got it's work cut out, especially if it keeps snowing the way it has been. Love the snow!

And just yesterday Dave said, "Did you know blue is the color of hanukkah?" So, not only is this our little charlie brown tree, it is also our Hanukkah tree. You know, because we celebrate hanukkah and all...
