Eric and I took some of our friends to cut down xmas trees last weekend. It was such a beautiful day and soooo fun!!! There is something liberating about holding an a saw (a VERY dull saw at that!) and going to find "the TREE". Like Eric and I have discussed even before this year, there is no "perfect tree", but how is it when we are looking for one, we are overcome by finding the "perfect tree". As we looked around the tree farm, Eric truly believed that a 10 foot tree would fit in our house. Now mind you, the top of our ceiling is 9 feet tall so why the 10 foot tree would work is beyond me, but it is fun to listen to his reasoning :) Any ways, after waying the cost and how big our room really is, we decided on the "perfect tree". Our friends were able to find their perfect trees as well. As you will see, once we found our perfect tree, we just had to hug it :)

Love it! You must have beautiful weather up there!
so fun! I miss going to find and cut down the perfect REAL Christmas tree. It's a great tradition. You'll have to post a picture of your tree once it's decorated
We love going out to find the "perfect" tree, but last year someone gave us a 9' tree for free, so we are using it from now on. Except once we move back into an apt. we will go back to cutting down a tree b/c the ceilings won't be high enough. After that we'll just have to have high enough ceilings to use our fake tree. But it is absolutely beautiful and looks so real! Does it not get really cold up there!? It's FREEZING here!!!
