Christmas Tree Hunting.

So we finally got our Christmas tree. Since as long as Don and I have been the dynamic duo that we are, we have hunted and bought our tree at Sleighbells of Sherwood. A tradition that we started with some dear friends of ours, the Piacitellis. It is right down the road from us. The whole atmosphere is Christmas. There is a band, Santa, a place to get hot cocoa and buy ornaments. Don is always in charge of picking out the tree. He has full say in what we bring home and that is just fine by me, since I grew up with a, GASP, artificial tree. I try to give my two cents, but I always get a reply like "The top is crooked" or "do you see how bare that tree is" So, I just follow him around the tree hill nodding and smiling. However, as the years go on, I think there will be two little boys who will have a lot to say about the tree we get! This year because we had the boys and it was raining, Connor, Kellen and I hunkered down with some hot cocoa and let Don do the hunting. And what a fine tree he found!!!

Connor all bundled up to hunt the tree hill with dad!

Connor loved running around all the trees! He was cold, but very happy!

Kellen and I just smiled and nodded....
