We journeyed this afternoon to a nearby wooded Christmas tree farm to find the perfect tree for our living room. It started snowing during our search, but that didn’t faze the girls. They were rather amazed and amused by the white stuff falling from the sky. We had a fun time out in the woods, and brought home a beautiful tree. We had briefly considered getting an artificial tree this year for the sake of convenience, but after seeing how thoroughly the girls enjoyed trudging through the snowy woods, I think we’ll brave the cold and stick with the real thing for the near future (of course, I may need to re-read this post to remind myself of exactly why I’m choosing to vacuum up tree needles through mid-June!).
Becky: “I’m almost as tall as the trees in Daddy’s arms.”
Susie: “Good thing we’re bundled up – it’s cold out here!”
Becky: “I see a good tree that-a-way.”
Susie: “The snow’s tickling my face!”
