Picking Out The Perfect Tree!






When we were younger our family cut down a tree every year... a fun memory. Now that we have kids, we have cut down our own tree. This year was fun since Madison is so in tune to what is going on. She was very excited to cut down our tree since she had already decorated Gramma Lori and Papa Paul's tree. So we bundled up and headed out. We went over to a batch of trees that looked the right size for our house. The second tree we saw, Madison said, "My want this tree". We told her that we liked it too (except for the crooked trunk :)) but told her that we should look through all the trees before we make a final decision. So we looked through the rows of tree. After awhile we asked Madison which one she liked and she walked several yards back to the original tree she had picked out and told us again that this was her favorite. Matt lipped at me, "It has a crooked trunk", I said, "how can we not get it?". So we brought it home, crooked trunk and all. Matt actually did an incredible job of straightening it up!
