hi ho, hi ho, it's off to cut a christmas tree we go!

ya, cheesy title, I know. I am very very aware.

So, today Jeremy and I went to cut down a tree for his condo! We tried to on Tuesday night, we made hot chocolate and everything

turns out they close at 5. Guess they don't want people sawing away at tree stumps in the dark. The whole cutting down your own tree thing was very exciting to me. I remember my dad used to cut ours down back in the day, but my sister and I never got to go with him. Not sure why you wouldn't want to bring a whiney kid along with you to complain about being cold and wanting hot chocolate :)

Anyways, we regrouped and decided on today instead. We drove through the entire tree cutting area, looking through lots L, J, G, D, B...A. We found 'the one' in A.

me, trying to saw the tree, but not being very successful (but I do have a look of determination, or frustration, or constipation...

I reassured the tree it would have a good home for its remaining days.
