Yes, We Have a REAL Christmas Tree in the Marshall Islands


How? The Co-op school here does a fundraiser and for $70 you can get a real evergreen tree. I did it to save the children (and not the trees). This is our first real Christmas tree since we've been married, and I find it strange that this happened in the Marshall Islands. Best part: since we're going parent-ward for Christmas, I split the cost of this unusually luscious and superb-smelling tree with my neighbor, so we get the full pre-Christmas cheer for half the cost.

Of course, you'll notice that we don't have very many ornaments, since we've always had a two-foot plastic tree. You'll also notice that there's nothing within Max's range. Such is life.

By the way, I don't know what other people do, but we feed our tree half water, half Sprite. I think it likes it. I do too. Merry Christmas to aolep!
