The Christmas Tree

Of course we went to our usual site for Christmas tree hunting this year and of course we brought home the biggest tree ever. We can't imagine going anywhere else for the tree that will grace our home from December to February (seriously. We leave it up that long). But their selection of appropriately sized trees gets smaller each year. When we picked this one out we knew it was big. That's why Robby left so much in the ground when he cut it down. He still had to cut more off after we got it home to get it to fit in the house though!
