Gordo the Tree


We bought our first Christmas tree! I wish you all could have been there when Jimmy almost got in a fist fight with the girl who stole the tree we originally wanted. I had to restrain him and draw his attention away from the action with the most beautiful tree ever made. He was beautiful! So green and full! Jimmy pulled the car around and we strapped it to the top. Once the tree was home and inside, it was obvious that it was not only full but FAT! He took up almost the entire living room. We almost need to move the couches out to make room for the tree skirt! He appropriately earned the name of Gordo.
