Here it is, my Christmas tree! Well, just for this year that is. I’m living bare bones in my sublet and didn’t even think I’d have one at all until I came across a free printable. He’s about four feet tall and pretty naked, but I’m going to figure out a way to add a little pizzazz. You can get your own right here!

If I’m not mistaken this will be the first December of my life that I don’t have an advent calendar. I’m kind of bummed, but dig deep and pull through (can you tell I’ve been watching a lot of Friday Night Lights lately?). If I were making one for someone else, however, I’d be super into this graphic holiday box advent from Oh Happy Day, great colors and patterns, and of course treats!
