Our Christmas Tree

Here, we are proud to present, the 2005 Christmas tree:
Oh wait...whoops...that's Laura and George's nice little tree. Now here is a tree to be proud of, and it didn't cost the tax payers anything (except maybe transportation to and from Poland when we moved here):
We got a lot of new ornaments that I'm very proud of this year:
This guy is named "Smoks" in Polish, pronouced 'smokes.' Isn't that a great name for a dragon? He apparently terrorized Krakow, burning thatched roofs and terrorizing the virgins of the land. The founder of Krakow, some-famous-king-whose-name-I-can't-remember, slew the dragon. Anyway, I couldn't find a Trogdor ornament, so this little guy is taking his place.

This is a typical Polish egg ornament that I added to the tree this year:
The Angel is also a local purchase, but her wings make her a little top heavy. She kept falling off the tree, and I think she might have damaged a wing this year. I think I'll have to replace her: I can't have a fallen angel on my tree.

Gidet LOVED playing in the tree and with the presents.
Of course, Gidget loves playing with everything. If only she could get to those birds...
