Christmas Trees!

So, this weekend Jenny and I bought Christmas trees for our homes, artificial ones. This picture is from the actual add for my tree. I think it's pretty and can't wait to put it up, but not until after Thanksgiving, mind you. Those of you who know us, know that it's only been recently that we would even consider buying a fake tree. Growing up, we would always drive to Utah to cut our own trees on the day after Thanksgiving, fresh from the forest. It was a big event with Grandma trying to steal everyone else's tree, the 2WD truck getting stuck, and a good time had by all. However, as time has gone on, it just made sense to get a fake one for now. Plus, the fake ones look much better than they did when we were growing up. And they even come with lights on them already! Now if they would only make them smell real - of course, I'm sure some of them do! At least we'll have a real one to smell at Mom and Dad's house, even if it did come from a lot instead of the Utah forest.
