Pickin Out a Tree

That's right ladies and gentlemen, we finally got a real tree!

Neither Beau or I are very picky about real vs. fake Christmas trees, so we've always used the {very nice} hand-me-down artificial tree Aunt Karen gave us. It fits perfectly in our living room, is always readily available in our basement, and it's free EVERY YEAR!

But Wade is so excited about everything Christmas that we had to give him the full experience and pick out a real tree.

So off we went to Home Depot (and yes, that's as far as we're going to find our perfect tree). Wade was very concerned that each tree we looked at had a stand. Picking out the stand was much more important I guess?

We found a beautiful tree!It's now all decorated and sparkling in our living room. Wade was very helpful in putting up ornaments on "his" tree. He's even made a few at school to contribute to the stash!

Let the Christmas season BEGIN!!!

I think we got the same exact type of tree at Home Depot too! You just can't beat the smell of a live Christmas tree. :)
