Family Tradition~ Christmas Tree

What did I want most for Christmas (besides my husband)? A really Christmas tree! In the eight years Paul and I have been together we have always had an artifical tree. Last year when we were putting the tree away I said, " Honey do you realize that we have had this tree since our first Christmas together? I really think we should get rid of the artifical tree so that next year we have to get a real one." We donated the artifical tree because it was still in pretty good shape.
Ever year we put up our tree on Thanksgiving night and decorate it that night and finish it the next night. However this year we bought the tree on the day after Thanksgiving. We ended up getting a 9-10 foot Fraiser fir. I love it! I finally got my REAL TREE! We are not decorating it tonight but I will post those picture after it's decorated.
