Oh, the scent of fresh pine!

I'd love to have a real Christmas tree, especially a live one that could be planted. But Spouse disagrees with me on this issue, so we use artificial trees instead.

I was talking with Daughter and her boyfriend about how I'd really like to have a real tree sometime because I love their scent, and the next thing I knew, he brought me one of the small Jesse trees they were giving away to children at their church. Awww....

Because it is winter (-28 degree wind chill here, just to put a point on that statement), the tree had to be planted indoors. Even though it is small, it still has that beautiful evergreen scent that I love. Apparently Lily likes it, too!

That is so sweet! So now you have a little bit of Christmas scent from the tree and Christmas spirit from the thoughtful gift.

What a nice tree! A very sweet gesture. Now if you can just keep Lily from devouring it!!!

I hope she just likes _smelling_ it, and not eating it;)
