A Blog About My Favorite Things

Christmas Tree Hunting

December 9, 2011 by Kristin Fields Leave a Comment

The morning after Thanksgiving we headed off to the Christmas Tree Tent. If you’ve been reading awhile, then you’ll remember that we decided to make memories last year and cut our on tree down with the girls. It was cold and miserable and Ella hated it. Not only was the experience lackluster (except for the awesome photographs), but the tree was a disaster and died and we later had to replace it with a fake one! We all decided that we deserved a redo and we headed back to our favorite striped tent.

But first, we had our annual pancake breakfast at IHOP. Ella had 5 pancakes and Soph ate almost as much of my french toast as I did. Daddy wouldn’t let us bring the big camera in and it was all I could do to get him to smile for a few Instagram pics. He is not a fan of taking photographs at a restaurant!

We were lucky ducks and it took us all of ten minutes to find the perfect tree. Just like always, SD & I are sure it’s our best tree ever. And ever better than that… it’s still alive!

And just because it’s my favorite picture of the whole day… here is my little helper straightening out the garland!
