The Perfect Christmas Tree

 So, this post is a little late! We've had our Christmas Tree now for over 3 weeks! Somehow, until now, I completely forgot to document one of the most exciting adventures of the season....picking out our perfect tree! Just like last year, it was a very mild day, especially for December. We didn't even need coats! It was nice because we didn't have to worry about Brett getting cold, but at the same time, when I think of Christmas, I think of cold temperatures and snow....and then warming up with blankets and hot chocolate. Those are my memories, and I hope they become Brett's too. But with global warming and the way things have been going, I'm not going to hold my breath! We've enjoyed making our own memories, and really, with a little boy is tow, the weather is the last thing that matters :-) We had so much fun!!!!



Brett took off looking for the tree. It was so funny because we would find the "perfect tree" and then our eyes would wander and we'd find another one that was "it".  This went on for almost an hour!


Brett really liked this tree, so I took advantage of of good photo opp. :-)


Finally! We found our tree and it was time to chop it down!

 Brett was a great helper...

And so happy and proud to take our tree home!


 Of course, as soon as we got home we had to put it up. And, of course, when we plugged our lights in, most of them didn't work. So, off to the hardware store I went! As soon as I got home the decorating began!


 And here is the finished product :-) It really is the perfect tree for our home :-)

Merry Christmas Everyone!!!
