I got to pick our Christmas tree this year. Our first ever! Joseph didn't really like this one because he said it was "too small" (whatever), so he agreed to choose the tree next year if I got to choose this one. Why would we need a bigger tree? I just didn't get it. I think it's a guy thing.
Anyway, it was fun. We've never bought a tree before, and when I was growing up- the Christmas tree was never anything we really got that into. My dad bought a 6 dollar tree one year I remember because he bragged about how cheap it was all the time. (And as you can imagine, it was a sorry looking tree) Then another year, he cut down a bush/tree from our front yard for our Christmas tree and that was embarrassing. I think no tree might have been a better option that year. So needless to say- this was an exciting event for us.
It smells wonderful, we love it!

It is a MERKLEY thing! We have to get a huge tree every year. We tried to get one Saturday and they were out of 9 - 10 foot trees. I tried to tell Dave that 8 foot was plenty big but that would never do. Love your tree, we miss you guys!
I'm totally doing a Christmas bush next year!
