Trimming the Tree

This year I really wanted to get a fake tree. I was not in the mood to trample through the mud in the cold to find the perfect tree. Plus putting lights on the tree drives me crazy. Cirdan and I looked around and we could not find a nice fake tree. We decided to try and get one of the nice expensive ones after Christmas (if they go on sale).

Cirdan left to run some errands and came home with a beautiful real tree!! He got it on the side of the road at some little tree sale place and it was probably the nicest looking one we've had and half the price.
We turned on the Christmas music and spent a couple hours decorating the tree as a family.
