EW. Creepy crawlies? At first you just about convinced me to ditch my glorious, bug-free, 7 foot tall, fake tree.... but I don't think I could handle the bugs.

Also, I love Dominic and that you named him Dominic. This absolutely makes me like you even more than before as I name everything in my life. Although I'd have a stern talking with Dominic about the bugs.

Beautiful tree. Alas, I have never had or even been around a real live Christmas tree! When I was younger, it was because I was too allergic to everything to even attempt it, and now well, the FIL is horribly allergic for a known fact, so STILL no real tree! -------------- <em>Ug. Allergies are the worst. Chris is allergic to Most Things, In The Air. We have no idea what really, or why, and it isn't always, but when it flares, boy howdy! does he need a Kleenex, or twelve.</em> Oh! Beautiful tree.
