Aaron and I got a REAL Christmas tree this year, we forgot our fake one at mom and dads when we moved, smooth move. N-e-ways we went to the tree lot and looked around for about 15 minutes and found the perfect one. The guy helped us load it on top of the car then tied the doors shut to keep the tree on so when we got home Aaron had to climb out his window to cut the string to get the tree off. That was really funny. Aaron carried it up the stairs and I did what I do best, staid out of the way, gave a few encouraging laughs, and took some pictures.
Getting it in the stand was a lot more work then I remember as a kid, dad did it with such ease. There were a few branches down low that needed to be cut off so Aaron held the tree while I took a stake knife and sawed away (note to self- get a hand saw;) We didn't have enough lights to cover the at first so we had to put off decorating. While Aaron was at an appointment I decided I would surprise him and have the tree all put together when he got home... I ended up messing up the tree stand and waiting till that weekend for Aaron's help.
Once everything was said and done I LOVE OUR TREE!!! Its the best looking tree we have had since we've been married. Merry Christmas

Oh, I found a blog stalker! How's it going in Tri-Cities?! Hope all is well, and that you're staying warm! Gotta love Tri-Cities, and their inability to plow when it snows...
Happy New Year!
