O Christmas Tree

Christmas time is so much fun especially when you are married to Mr. Christmas and he has passed that love on to our son. I tease Chance that the reason he loves Christmas so much is because his birthday is on the 19th and he gets a double whammy.

I am so glad Chance wanted to go and cut down a tree the first year we were married and thus started our family tradition.

On December 1st Chance used one of his vacation days and we went to cut down our tree, decorate it and get all of the Christmas decorations out around the house.

Here is the tree T wanted... We tried to explain to him that we would be like the Griswolds if we tried to take that big of tree into our house. We are pretty sure it was at least 9-10 feet. He told us it was the best one out there and we really needed it (by best I think he meant biggest).

If you are looking for a place to cut your own tree Lakeside Christmas Tree Farm is a WONDERFUL place to go. They are so nice there and T loved riding on a wagon (pulled by a tractor) out to where the trees are.

Then that afternoon I had the privilege of judging our local Christmas parade along with these two ladies.


Thanks to the Irish Bred Pub downtown for allowing us to judge from their 2nd story balcony!!
