Early (and I mean early) on Saturday morning we went out to get our tree...a wonderful family tradition...or so I thought. We took the kids to Dunkin Donuts first and had hot cocoa and donuts. Then off to the tree lot...at which we arrived before they opened and had to come back 30 minutes later. I really did think that the kids would be into it this year, but it was cold and there was a lot of whining. The boys started off in a good mood and slowly progressed to where they were beating on each other. Bella was very cold and just wanted to be held...which makes for difficult tree picking . It makes me laugh to think back on going out to get our tree when we were younger and I am sure we behaved the same way. I still have fond memories of it and hopefully the kids will too (even though they were not too excited about it this year)! We picked out a good one and it looks beautiful in the house...I could have a Christmas tree up year round! 'Tis the season!
this is the one!
up and ready to go home

Enjoying the view!
