O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree



We all bundled up yesterday and drove out to a Riehle's Tree farm to purchase our very first Wisconsin Christmas Tree. Sam and Seth were very excited to play in the snow... since we have yet to get any of our own (not that I'm complaining... soon enough!). They soon realized, however, that they should have waited until after we had picked our tree to play in it and get all wet and cold. Aaron loved being out in the fresh air. It was a really good time, and we brought home a very beautiful tree.

We decorated our tree this evening, and the boys did a really good job. At first I thought the tree might fall over with all the weight on just one branch, but we were eventually able to convince Seth to put some ornaments elsewhere. We even hung some candy canes and are eager to find out just how quickly they disappear. I think Adam counted them first, so we shall see... It's fun to get out all the ornaments and remember where they came from or who made them. I just love Christmas!
