It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

R was determined to have Christmas decorations, even though I've been on a drive to clear out unnecessary stuff, pack what's left and generally be efficient.

So I said we could hit Ikea for a quick fix of tinselly items yesterday. We were in and out in under an hour and then bought a cute little plastic tree in Home Depot for $5.49. Result.

She did all the decorating herself and it's really really nice. I'm so pleased she made it happen :-)
