So we figured that we should take the first nice weekend after Thanksgiving and go cut down out tree at the Tree Farm down the street. This way we won't get stuck having to pick out and lug home a tree in the rain. Not that the winter weather has been bad here yet...but you never know. So the day after Thanksgiving we headed over to the farm to pick out our tree. Bix was leaning towards the blue spruce, but we ended up with a lovely white fir again this year. Bix enjoyed traipsing through the rows of trees and enjoying the complimentary hot cider at the tree shaking area. The first few days with the tree up were a little crazy, with Bix needing to touch all the ball ornaments (luckily we got plastic ones!) and wanting Mommy and Daddy to touch them all first to make sure they were not going to hurt him. But that has calmed down and the tree stands proudly in the living room (I'll post a pic of the finished tree when I get a chance).
" How does this one measure up mom?"
