Oh Christmas tree Oh Christmas tree....

We've always gotten a real tree. But our

tradition of cutting it down this year and last

did not happen because we were out of town so

we had to shop around the town. We might have

to retire that tradition and get a new one.

We found this nursery in Clearfield that had

nice trees. So we got one of their biggest trees.

I love this picture of my favorite boys in the world!

Little "O" and Big Daddy!

We took a chance with this tree because it

was so cold out side the tree branches had

not fallen down into place so we did not know

if it had any bald spot. But we guessed good.

As soon as it got in our warm house the branches

began to fall and the tree was so pretty it looked fake.

The kids look forward to decorating the tree

every year together as a family. We hang one ornament

at a time. It's fun to talk about each one since

they are from Brandon's childhood and some from

are family vacations over the years.

The girls each have a few of their own to hang.
