Boulder Tree Cut was a little squishier than in years past but a great adventure nonetheless. I think the tree selection team is getting better at eyeing up the tops of the trees from afar. We emerged from the woods with three trees, a bunch of greens, 6 adults, 2 toddlers and a dog. Success! We also ran into other fine folks we know, had a snack and then rocked on into nap time.
The beginning of great memories.
We built up the tree adventure for the week before. I think Lu had a great time. And now has been sharing with folks that there is a tree in her house.
This evening we put the ornaments on after a pretty crazy day. Pink eye has hit our house and Lu is kind of a ball of goo. We spent 3 hours at urgent care through what should have been nap time. Well if that isn't the recipe for an awesome afternoon, I don't know what is. Lucy was a rock star though, let the nurses/doctors do their thing and even took a nap when we got home.
This photo is hilarious. Nothing like a holiday sweatshirt glamour shot.
Well hello Santa. We've left this wide angle. Don't zoom in. Lu's face is not at her cutest or cleanest. Santa didn't seem to mind.
Ladder? Check. Ornaments? Check. Band-aid on your booty which was applied for a minor head bump earlier? Check.
Santa pruning like a champ.
Angel up!
The toddler decorator was going for a more clustered arrangement.
The finished product. Oh Christmas Tree. I'm so excited for the holiday season.
