On Thanksgiving weekend, we went out and spontaneously decided to cut down our own Christmas tree for 2009. We went to a tree farm at the base of the mountain nearby. Tree after tree....hundreds it seemed....we just couldn't find the perfect one. We would find a tree, get ready to pose for a picture and then we would spot another one off in the distance. We were all finally able to agree on tree.
Once we got the tree up, we couldn't find the lights. We searched everywhere. It wasn't until a day later when Matt realized that the reason we didn't have lights was because our artificial tree is a pre-lit tree. LOL! Once we figured that out, we were able to add lights and decorate.
We took the kids out to Hallmark again this year to continue a tradition we just started last year. Each one gets to pick out an ornament so that eventually when they are headed out on their own, they will each have a set of ornaments to take with them.

Katheryn...we aren't sure what statement she was trying to make but she sure had us laughing.
