We went Thursday night, after Nathan and the baby got home from Tucson. They were down hunting quail (well just Nathan) with my Dad. My mom got her baby fix, and a quick reminder of what it's like to have a baby while going all over town, and the baby had a ball! They were gone 2 days. It was fine, lonely, but okay. I watched Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 and kept turning it down afraid I was going to wake the baby. I'd then realize I was home alone, laugh, and turn it back up just because I could.
Step 1: scout for the perfect tree...
Step 2: Pick one out of the bunch....
Step 3: Open the tree to make sure it's full with no bear spots.
Step 4: Put the tree up in the house.
Step 5: String lights on the tree.
Step 6: Get out the bazillions of ornaments and get hooks on them.
Step 7: Place presents under the finished tree.
Ta-Dah! The tree is beautiful and we're all happy as clams. We put the tree in our front living/dining room this year so we could put up a gate to keep all animals and the baby out. We've had Lee steal ornaments and Leroy pee on the tree in years past, so we thought it best not to temp fate with the baby this year.

YAY!! I love REAL trees- the just smell so wonderful. Yours looks gorgeous. Nate and I are debating whether or not to buy one this year since we are headed to Colorado in 10 days...hmmm...
