Christmas Preperations

I forgot how hard this time of year is to be a student, you want to do the fun christmas stuff like shopping, and wrapping, and baking.......yet with final papers, projects, and final exams it is hard to balance it all.

The first weekend after thanksgiving we were able to have time to drive a bit north and cut down our christmas tree. We knew what kind we wanted, and we knew we wanted to bigger tree than we had last year. It was pretty cold, so I wanted to move the process along and just get the first tree we saw...........Alec insisted on finding the 'perfect' tree. It was fun though and we did find a great tree to cut down.

That same day Alec put up a bunch of lights on the house outside. We also decorated our tree, which was fun because we have all the old ornaments from when we were kids given to us by our parents. So we are now all decorated for christmas!




That is the tree we cut down behind us
