This year I learned about a small tree farm just outside of town. We were able to get one of the last trees available. We went to the farm as soon as Patrick was able to get off work. We didn't realize that we would be trekking through a good bit of mud. There was also a lot of dead grass grown up around the bottom of the trees.
The girls were excited to explore while we picked out our tree. Most of the ones there were quite a bit taller. Even the one we picked was too tall to fit in our front window. There was someone there to cut it down for us and strap it on top of our car.
We took the whole next evening to decorate the tree. We used a lot of our special family ornaments and the girls got to place their own special ones also. Last year's ornaments were two felted angels cradling babies. I got the girls some glass ornaments from the Museum of Glass in Tacoma on our vacation this summer. I also got myself a very pretty blown glass one.
