Saturday....

...we purchased our tree from our local third generation farm. Everyone in the family loves it, including Callie! :D

OH! What a pretty tree!! I love the lights, so much color! Lots of candy canes on that tree, do you think there will be any left by Christmas! Can't wait to see how many presents Santa leaves under your tree!! Merry Christmas!

Wait... a REAL tree??? Yay!! LOL Did you get one last year too? I can't remember. Aren't they wonderful though? I love the way they make the house smell.

Beautiful!

Thank you! :D Lots and lots of presents I hope.

Yes, a real one. I just can't go back to fake. :P I love the whole experience of the real one...and the smell.

We actually put wreaths on the doors outside as well and they smell just as lovely as the tree. :)

I love the holidays.

I know what you mean... we love the real tree look and smell.

The next step is a live tree! LOL I read about it last year and looked into it. It's a live tree with roots in a base and you can either plant it afterward in your yard or donate it to be planted around the city. Sounds great... but I guess they are crazy heavy, not real cheap, and you have to follow certain rules (away from heater etc...). Well... I decided that killing one tree for Christmas was something I could live with. :-)

I like the idea though... just not enough to actually do it.

Oh, my...I think I would give up trees all together first! LOL :D We are almost all ready here! Can't wait for the weekend to be home and enjoy the coziness of the house for a few days. :)
