I absolutely LoVe our Christmas tree!! Maybe it's the fact that we didn't put a tree up last year that makes this tree that much better... in our defense it was the first time we didn't put a tree up because we were gone for 3 weeks for Christmas and New Years. It seems as though the last few times we have had a tree we borrowed a fake tree... which just isn't right by my book, I'm all about a real Christmas tree, mess and all!! We wanted to go cut one down at one of the Christmas tree farms around here, but since they are only open on the weekends and Jared was out of town the first two weekends in December and I was gone the weekend before that, so we decided that Home Depot would have to do... hey their price is right!
We were debating between two trees and then it was discovered that one of the trees had a birds nest in it. Apparently, finding a bird's nest in your tree is said to be sign of good luck in Icelandic lore. Who can't use a little good luck? Besides, Carter and Gage were emphatic that we get the tree with the nest so there really wasn't any question.
Thanks Akiko for tagging me, and getting me to make a post about our Christmas tree!
