Yesterday, we took the girls to the local Christmas tree farm to pick out our tree. It's a bit earlier than usually, but with Einey's birthday party next weekend and Husband working the following weekends, we wanted to go when we weren't rushed. We grabbed a saw and walked down towards the back of the farm. The day, was thankfully, not to bad out. It was in the mid 40's, so definitely not "oh my god, lets grab a tree and go" weather.
We found a great tree and the kids had a blast running up and down and across the rows. Einey thought it was great - just like a maze. And while we didn't take the wagon ride, choosing to walk instead, and Santa wasn't there yet - he arrives next weekend - the girls had fun. I believe this was only the second year we actually cut down a tree (the first year being the year we were married and only because the place where we had our reception gave us a free tree). I think it will be a tradition from here on out.
Today, we decorate!

I didn't enter your giveaway because I'm a Mac girl—not because I don't love you! :)
Congrats on NaBloBlaHoosey!
sweet tree!
Congrats on a blog a day - I'm having a hard time with a blog a week these days! And good work with the tree! We wait until after our birthday(s) party next Sat so as to avoid misdemeanors by tween boy cousins wrestling in our living room :)
