One of my most favorite things to do growing up was going with the family to get the Christmas tree. I remember all of us getting in the van to go get the perfect tree. I remember running through the trees out of pure excitement as soon as we got there. Running around immediately turned into Taylor and I playing tag while the rest of the family was looking for the tree. Dad always did find the perfect one.... so tall and full. When we got home I was back in the house running around (again from pure excitement) while the boys brought the tree in. Mom already had the tin cans of ornaments and lights out and ready to hang on the tree. Thank you so much mom and dad for always taking us to go the tree... those are some of my favorite memories I'll never forget. Well David and I have been debating whether or not to get a Christmas tree since we are headed out west for Christmas in few weeks... but we finally decided to go ahead a get one. I am so glad we did! Last night we went to Dollar tree to get all of the decorations and Lowes to get some lights. Then we went to get the tree. We were having so much fun picking it out. After going back and forth between a few trees we finally made a decision. The man wrapped up the tree and helped David put in on the car. We had such a great time putting up the lights and decorations. After we finished we sat on the couch and watched "Elf".
Here are some pictures from our night...
