this year Nathan, my mom and i thought it would be a good idea to let the kids pick out the Christmas tree! the kids seemed really excited the whole way to the tree farm and i could hardly contain my own excitement!!! so we arrived and me and Nathan immediately dragged the kids to the back where the huge 13, 10 and 9 footers were. here's one that me and Nathan LOVED.
the kids immediately announced that those beautiful full trees were way to big. our bubble being popped me and Nathan remembered that this was supposed to be for them so we went to the slightly smaller ones and told them that whatever tree they pick is the tree that we will get, we promised!!! so they came upon this tree. we thought for sure that this is the one we were going to leave with
we were excited! i mean it was full and beautiful and the perfect size, 6ft i think. while me and Nathan were standing there discussing how we were going to strap the thing to the roof of the van we hadn't realized that kids had wondered away. when we turned around to the sound of there yelling we saw the jumping and pointing to this tree
are you kidding me????!!!! yes i know all the trees need love but seriously?! me and Nathan looked at each other both wondering what to say. however the kids reminded us that we had promised! curse those promises i say. so i went over picked the tree with one hand i might mention and took it to the register and paid 15 bucks for the thing. the guy asked if we wanted a rope to tie it to the top but we couldn't help but laugh. so this is where it ended up
it fits perfect!!!!!
so its gonna be a charlie brown Christmas after all. the kids had fun decorating the tree as you can see. my mom had to put it on a Little table stand so she can actually put some presents up but other then that id say its quite pretty.....wouldn't you?
