Vánoce strom! (Christmas tree!)

Yesterday Jeremy and I went with our friends Vera and Karel to find a Christmas tree. The own a piece of land where they grow trees and offered to take us to get our Christmas tree with them, which was very nice. We walked thought a the little trees and found one that was next to a much bigger one and would surely die within the year due to competion. I'm not sure Jeremy was quite as excited as me, but we have our first Christmas tree! Earlier in the month we decorated our giant catus in the hallway of our appartment building, which is strange for most Czechs. Who would decorate a cactus?! So as you can see, we both: a Christmas tree and Christmas Cactus :)

Merry Christmas, Love, Grandma D
