Tree Shopping

As you will probably see in the coming weeks, my tree is fake--as in REALLY fake. Think tinsel. However, for years I have insisted that my parents not buy a fake tree. I know--hypocrisy. Shocking! I love going to the tree farm and picking out a tree. It's one of those traditions that I just can't bring myself to part with. Last year, I really wanted to take Levi on his first tree shopping excursion, but we were all so tired from adjusting to a new baby that we skipped it. So, here, for your viewing pleasure, is Levi's very first jaunt to the Christmas tree farm. They even had a hayride!
My Aunt Carol came up for Thanksgiving and stayed for this fabulous little adventure:

    I love the idea of a real christmas tree a lot. I think we got one once or twice growing up. DH is too much of a pragmatist to go for it. Only thinking of the dropping needles, not enough thinking about that wonderful Christmassy smell. So our tree is very fake too. But I love my parent's fake tree- it's so cute and conjures up CHristmas memories even though it is plastic. So there you go.
