A lot like Christmas!

It's our first very first Christmas as a newly married couple! I was so excited to get a tree up as soon as it was deemed acceptable by society standards. I must admit, it was up the week before Thanksgiving. It was about 10pm on a Friday night when I looked at Anthony and said, "Can we please go get a Christmas tree? Like right now? Please?" The only place open at such an hour, was the one the only... you guessed it, WalMart. Off he went with his make-upless, sweat pant wearing hooded wife in tow. You could probably spot me on the people of walmart, that's how scary I looked. But nonetheless, a Christmas tree we had to have that very night.

I originally had wanted to try something funky like a peacock tree. I thought my heart was set on it as we ventured into Walmart, but alas, Walmart is not known for their huge selection of Peacock feathers.

Then, not being able to talk my hubby into a delightful purple tree offered up by Walmart, I laid my eyes on the pretty and fluffy white trees.

I thought it would be a fun, yet chic statement to have a soft white tree. I decided to go with light blue and silver ornaments.

This is a picture I found after I had picked out my white tree and blue ornaments. I think it's so chic and adorable!

Here is the actual one that we bought from Walmart for around $40. It's around 6 feet tall.

And here is our very first Christmas tree!
I love the white, silver and blue. I found a light blue sparkly star ornament for the topper and we just filled it with white strand lights and cheap-o Walmart ornaments, which I must say, were quite adorable.

Walmart had these precious little white feather balls that just clip onto your tree. Snatched up a few which fulfilled my feather craving after all.

So there you have it! The first Daly Christmas tree. After it was all said and done, it was around 1:30am till we wrapped up. Who knows, next year I may change my mind again and want to change out the colors of the ornaments, or even want a real tree, but this one will always hold a special little place in my heart!

More Christmas decor to come!
