Oh Christmas Tree

We went to pick out our Christmas tree this morning. We had to go early because we didn't know when the freezing rain was to arrive.

Normally, Mem, Jerry, and Toby would go along and get their tree too, but because of the weather it was just Dennis, Corey, Collin, and I that went. It just wasn't the same. Dennis is the most impatient person I've ever known. Always in a hurry. Luckily, it didn't take us too long to find our tree.

One thing that didn't change was that we set out to get a smaller tree this year. Every year we end up cutting most of the tree to get it to fit in the stand, and in the house too. This year, just like any other year, we ended up with a 7 1/2 footer. lol I have to say, though, that this tree does seem a bit thinner than last year's.

Dennis cut the tree down in no time at all. The trunk was rather small and we are thankful since he didn't complain or do any swearing. ;)
