one tree please!

ohh the many many reasons i love have a house.
#1 on my list right now?
being able to justify a real tree!!
we've had the same 5 ft ugly target fakey for the past 4 years 
but really? in an apartment or a hotdog town home there was no point.
but my home know fits it perfect.
so we went to cut down our tree!!


really though.
down the road in sebastopol is grandma buddy's christmas tree farm.
cutest white farm house 'splade' with greenery.
rows and rows of trees to pick from.
however, i left my camera at home :(



yes i do dress myself and child for specific outings... if you looked close enough at brig's jacket it has a christmas tree on top of a car, and i wore my boots and fur. nate however, dressed for the weather cause it was 70 degrees out!




well this is the one we settled on.
nate said "i don't feel like we should have a very big tree because we don't have a very big family" 
i agreed 
this one was per-fect
i staked out our tree while nate went to find a saw.
to my chagrin he came back with a guy with a chainsaw for our trees 3 in diameter trunk :)
he didn't know they had hand saws  :)
i guess lesson learned for next year 
anyway....
our fj and a douglas fur were made for each other.


and 
it turns into this when you get home
which is just magical :)
