Our 2022 Christmas Tree Hunt

As Decembers go, they get quite busy! So last Sunday, even though Ben was up in Utah for the army, the rest of us went a caught us a couple of wild trees. 

This was originally going to be the kids' tree. (The kids put a tree up upstairs and that's where they put their sibling gifts.) It was small enough for Lucy to chop down.

And somewhere in the midst of this group of trees, was to be our main tree. . . 

Well, as we brought them home we realized that the main tree was a bit sparser than the kid-tree . . . Apparently it looked bushier because it was grouped up together! So we swapped the trees and Tada!

Our lovely tree. We still can't get over looking at the top picture and seeing how tiny the tree appears when in the wild. But it's just right and, though small, is actually quite beautifully and well-shaped (for a Charlie Brown tree)!

It's the most wonderful time of the year . . .
