oh christmas...

CACTUS, oh christmas CACTUS....

so this was the year, the year we finally got our christmas cactus!! i was so excited all week to go to my favorite cactus store, cactus jungle. it is the same place we have gotten most of our succulents and cactus for the house and for our wedding and everything we have gotten from there is so happy. i am always excited about supporting a great local company with great product.

this place is just so truly magical. tom and i could have walked out of the nursery with a crap load of plants if we wanted to but the ol' wallet just isn't big enough.

we walked around and looked at all our options...this guy was so awesome, he looks so much like  audrey II from little shop of horrors, FEED ME SEYMOUR!

we snagged one of these cool wall mounted succulents. they give you a blank pot with moss and supply you with all the cuttings. when i got home i placed them in their new home and now we have to wait 2 months till they take root so we can hang it up on the wall,  can't wait :)

they had the cutest little terrariums. the hippo was so cute, we bought one for a special father-in-law (yea, thats right dave, its you!) and we bought ourselves a little black bear and we are gonna make little homes for these guys very soon.

we made our purchase and took little brumhilda home with us :) it was a little scary driving home, she was so wobbly, we were worried she was gonna snap but she made it home safely.

her new little home is on top our new awesome dresser, where rosie can not get to her! we made a pit stop at walgreens and picked up some lights to adorn her with. not sure if ornaments will work on her but for now we like her the way she is, all light up and looking sexy. she really is the perfect christmas cactus tree shape, i don't think we could have made a better choice!

xo,
