It is now officially 2 months since we got married and DH and I just finished putting up our first tree! I'm so excited! We had Christmas carols playing while we put up the tree and decorated it together. We stopped and danced for a bit and it was just such a nice evening all around!
Okay so here are some pics!
Our dog Viva was checking out the tree...
See?
I added candy canes at the end. I'm dying to eat one

Looks great. We just put up our tree too. It was awesome. I am Jewish so to finally have a tree was a big deal!

Beautiful Yesi!
I was at Target a couple times last week looking at ornaments and never saw that one! Darn I need to get it!
I hope they still have them! I went to the Target in Queens not too far from my new place and decided to get all new balls (I had originally bought blue balls ( I mean, blue ORNAMENTS) and decided I'd rather have a red tree since we had put up garland and have poinsettias etc. So I got new red balls at Target and found the silver ornaments.
I bought a few - the wedding frame one, the '2007' one, and two dog house frame ones (one for Viva and one for Coco that passed away this summer). Each one was like $15 so it added up and I was thinking I shouldn't buy them, but so happy I did!!!! Of course, the dog house ones are now HALF PRICE on Target.com but I checked for the wedding frame one and they don't have it online at all. Hopefully the stores have them!!
Here's the doggie one I bought. Just have to put pics of the doggies in there so we can put them up on our tree.

Girlie, they sure do add up!!! I spent $15 on each of 3 ornaments and I think $10 on the other one so that's $55 on these 4! PLUS all the balls we bought ...I decorated in shades of red - shiny, matte, light, dark, sparkly, etc - silver (shiny and matte), and white.
The ONE thing I didn't get for us was a 'First Christmas' ornament!!! That would be a great Christmas gift! That, and a Nativity set!

Posted by MrsQ-in2007 For those who asked, the ornament I bought at TARGET!!! The wedding ornament was $15 which isn't too bad for a nice keepsake ornament, no? lol:
Thanks for sharing with us. Bummer I didn't read this earlier. I took my class to Target about 1/2 after you posted. I think Friday I'm going to go and see what they have.

i love your tree and ornament!!
i got a similar one at michaels that's not wedding specific, although they did have one that said 'our first christmas', i just liked the plain one better
but everything, including your super cute dog, looks great!

Thanks, she's our baby (everyone thinks it's a boy, don't worry, but she is really the sweetest!).
She's a mixed terrier. Her mom is a Jack Russel terrier and her dad.... dang it, I always forget! He's like a Wheaton terrier but not that...
Oh and people think she's SOOOO old, but she only just turned 2!

I really need to trim the hair on her face - she looks younger when I do it.
