So, my MUST for the holiday season is a fresh REAL tree. This, for anyone who knows me well, knows is by far my favorite part of Christmas. The smell of a real evergreen tree truly can't be beat! This year was no exception, and though I am far from home, a Christmas tree is a Christmas tree no matter where you are. Sam has gotten used to the convenience of a artificial tree but, this is one area to which I hold my ground. So he lovingly conceded but, not without setting a few ground rules, we were to buy the tree from a Christmas tree farm he and his family went to every year when he was growing up. I happily agreed to his terms and this weekend we went on a Christmas tree hunting adventure. It had just snowed the day before so all the trees were covered in a layer of fluffy white powder, it was magic. It didn't take us long to identify our tree...because when you know, you know! So, presented below you will see our first ever Christmas tree hunting adventure.

| A forest full of trees...let the Christmas tree hunt begin! |
 |
| Look, we found our very first Christmas tree! |
 |
| Cutting down our tree. He's so very manly! |
 |
| Hunt and gather in the Christmas tree forest! |
 |
| For those longer journeys into the Christmas tree farm. |
 |
| And, away we go! |
 |
| Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree how lovely are your branches. |
 |
| A home full of Christmas cheer! |
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all our family and friends!
