When we go out shopping for a Christmas tree, I sometimes get nervous that we might not find a tree that we like. A few years back, we ended up buying a tree from a grocery store out of desperation that we were running out of time and needed to get a tree on a budget. Such a traumatic experience that led to one grumpy adult male and two women (my sister and I) who had to deal with a probably dead & dry tree. Yesterday, we visited three lots and it was pretty fascinating to see Adam going towards a tree and claimed, "That's it! That's the tree." A perfect 6-ft douglas fir within our budget including the stand. What a deal!
Now the tree is up and decked with glittering lights and ornaments. Every year, we pick out two or three new ornaments to hang on our tree. We don't really have a specific theme; it's a collection of ornaments over the years.
