We went and bagged ourselves a Christmas tree this weekend! We drove all over Illinois for this baby. Finally we found a great tree farm that featured our favorite kind of tree–a blue spruce–at a reasonable price. It was a pretty basic kind of place. I wore fake antlers.

Dale did the the big unveiling…(and we had to cut a foot off the bottom, as usual).

Isn’t she a beauty?


And here she is rockin’ a whole slew of decorations!
