Rather then use our old rusted artificial tree this year, we decided to get a real one. So this afternoon, after church and lunch with friends, we headed to Cox Christmas Tree Farm to get our Christmas tree. Enjoy!
It didn’t take us long to find our special tree… a Douglas Fir. Isn’t it pretty?
Beginning the first cut…
Almost there…
Thumbs up for a job well done on getting our perfect tree!
Trying to get it straight in the stand. We also decided that we’d put it in our living room instead of in the front room window like we’ve done for the past 4 years living in the house. Which has worked out nicely because we get to enjoy the tree more since we spend most of our time in this part of the house anyway.
I think she makes a perfect tree, if she would only hold still long enough!
Daddy and Isabel work on getting the lights on.
She’s having fun working on our tree.
The next few nights we worked on getting it decorated with bead garland and ornaments.
Our Christmas tree.
