Oh, Christmas Tree

So, being here in Arizona everyone buys fake Christmas trees and that's lame. Growing up in the Pacific Northwest my family has always had a real one. Cassie and I were not going to settle for an artificial tree! There is nothing like that Christmas tree scent! At first we wanted to cut down our own...until we realized where we lived. There are no trees here. We had to settle for a tree stand off the freeway. Wouldn't ya know the trees were raised in Oregon (yes, we asked)?!


- Unfortunately, we couldn't get a beautiful Douglas...so we settled for whatever type this is. The worker insisted that we weren't "cheap"- we were just "frugal".



- Yes, Cassie is in shorts. That's Arizona for ya.


- The mostly finished product. We need a few more ornaments and something for the top.


I love Christmas!

Nice work getting a real tree too! That is awesome that your tree is from Oregon! It looks really pretty. Are you home yet?
