It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at the Cravens home. After much thought and deliberation, we decided to put up a Christmas tree. At first, we were not going to put one up, because we are hardly ever home. Because our ceilings are so high in our house, I knew we would need at least a nine foot tree, but I already had a seven foot tree that I wanted to use. After looking at the Mississippi Magazine, I decide to try and find an urn to put my seven foot tree in. Kyle and I LOVE Umi's Japanese steak house and so we figured why not just drive to Starkville to go to Lowes and eat Umi's. While at Lowes, I found a perfect nine foot tree, that cost 349 dollars. I would have loved to have that tree, but instead I bought a 60 dollar urn to put my seven foot tree in. I think it turned out pretty good and Kyle was happy that I saved him A LOT of money!
