As much as we are watching our children to see what they do with thier lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours.

Oh Christmas Tree

Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, how lovely are your branches....

The day we reserved to cut down our Christmas tree was a rainy one.  We drove to a tree farm and the selection was very limited. The selection of Furs were only 3 feet tall so we ended up with a White Pine.  Those do not have a fragrant smell or lovely branches for holding heavy ornaments.  We made the best choice that we could given the selection.  Just like Charlie Brown,  by the end of the day our tree looked pretty.  Its amazing what a little love and sparkly decorations can do to improve the tree. It was a nice day spent as a family.  The girls enjoyed being pulled on the "sled" and drinking hot coco by the fire.












The girls had a tree of their own in the playroom to decorate too.  It was the perfect size. They took pride in making it look pretty.
