'O Christmas Tree....

'O Christmas Tree....How Lovely Are Your Branches......

Due to some unforeseen circumstances regarding our beautiful prelit tree last year, we decided to actually get a real tree this year. So, we called my BIL to borrow his truck and of course my nephew wanted to come along......

It was a beautiful afternoon and even though it was cold, it felt good to be outside. We walked around for a bit and looked at ALL the trees. Emmaline spotted one and we all liked it, so that is the one we got!

Once we got it home, we realized that we were going to have to go get lights for it since we no longer had any. Steven was not thrilled about having to put lights on the tree, but we did it!!! But explain to me why they would sell lights for your green tree that have white cording instead of green!!! Talk about standing out like a sore thumb!

The tree looked good....except for the white strands of lights. Either we are going to have to get a new prelit tree next year, or I am going to go on a hunt for new strands of lights for the tree!

Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!!!
