heto na naman kami

For those who read my blogs last Christmas, naaalala niyo pa ba ang Oplan:Christmas Tree entries ko? Well, heto na naman kami!

We got the new and fresh-from-the-freezer Christmas tree today! We are so ready this year! Praning na kasi!



And here it is! Oh yeah, this time we remembered to cut about a quarter inch of the trunk before putting it on the stand!



Step 1: Read all instructions! As in pati dun sa tag na nakakabit sa puno!



Basahin ang kailangang basahin! Read the back of the gamot again!


Step 2. Make sure that the liquid mixture in the pot is warm and ready. Naku, we hope this does the trick this year! Hehehe.



Step 3. Untie the tree. Remember that it is not plastic so let the branches relax on their own. Unless gusto mong kalbuhin ang puno today, of course.


Step 4. Check if it's a good shade of green. Check! Let's hope it stays in the good side of green till January 1!


Step 5. Start decorating. Let's see... with a bigger tree, do we need more lights and more trinkets? Yup!

The tree looks great though!And the smell is amazing! Amoy Baguio na naman ang buong bahay.

Hehehe. Naku, Balb, I'd love to see you have a real X'mas tree. Parang I remember you having a X'mas potted plant before. You posted its death in your blog, di ba? Hehehe.

Ya, that was orange tree 2 years ago. Then last year we had a real one, remember? (the one duct-taped to the floor) I'm looking for a potted Xmas tree! For year-round smell!
