Yesterday after Rachel's performance, we went to the Christmas tree farm to pick out our tree. We started the tradition of picking out and using a live tree when Rachel was 2 years old. It is really fun to go and pick out the "perfect" tree. We really downsized this year compared to the last two years. The first year that we went, we came home with a huge tree that we had to trim a lot for it to be able to stand under our 12' ceiling. We learned then that trees growing in a field look a lot smaller than they actually are...LOL! Here are some pics of us at the tree farm.
And here is a picture of the bare tree in our living room. It looks pretty sad right now. We won't be able to decorate it as a family until Saturday afternoon since we have Christmas pageant rehearsal at church tonight and in the morning. Since Jeremy knows how impatient I am, he didn't even bring the lights and ornaments down from the attic when he brought down the tree base. I'll post some pics when we get it decorated. :)
