Finding a Christmas tree




Today was the start to our Christmas holiday season. We went to find Ellie’s Christmas tree at a Christmas tree farm just over the hill from our house. We walk between the trees looking for the perfect one. There was one tree that Victoria and I liked and when we asked Ellie if this was her tree and she said “no”, so we kept on looking. Finally we came upon one that we all agreed on and Ellie call it “Ellie’s Tree”. Ellie and I sat by the tree to save it as Victoria looked around in case there was another one that we should look at but there wasn’t. Next, Ellie pained the trunk to mark it for us and we put a sold sticker on it. We will be back in a week or so to cut it down.

On a side note, the lady who owns the tree farm use to own the farm that once included our property. She was the one that moved our house to its current location and then sold it. She said she has pictures of the house being moved and will show us when we come and pick up the tree.

That's so cool, and a great photo op! We went and got a fake tree from the Warehouse but I miss having a real tree. Hi Victoria!
