This year we went to a tree farm down the road to get our Christmas tree.
It was a rainy and gloomy day.
We pulled up to the tree lot and saw some trees already cut.
Joe and I liked "him" from the start,
but we thought we'd walk around to make sure and
let the kids have a tree farm experience.
Found a bird's nest in a tree.
I think his words were "Look Mom! I've found the perfect tree."
We ended up getting the first tree we saw when we pulled up.
It was a Canaan fir.
Shipped in to the local farm.
The local farm is only allowed to grow pines.
The kids are watching the tree do a little dance.
The tree got a shakedown to remove debris and loose needles.
Even though it was rainy and cool that day,
the kids had a good time.
They went home from the tree farm with
a cookie, a candy cane, a coloring book,
a Christmas tree,
and a new experience.
