We went out to a local farm where we could cut down a tree. In the end we looked at the ones already cut and found the perfect tree for us. It had a slight blue tinge on the bottom of the needles and is just beautiful. I saw it first and once everyone else say it... well... we knew it was our tree.
It was a cold night, but worth going out to get our tree. There's something about getting the tree set up that makes Christmas seem closer and the excitement heightens. We are not done yet decorating. WE still need to put the ornaments on but at least we have the lights, ribbon and something new this year, beads! With our pellet stove on, looking out the window with still some traces of the snow and Ryan busting out the eggnog, yes, Christmas is just around the corner.
