A Busy Day Planned

Well, the day is finally here for us to trek out to the tree farm and cut down our beloved Christmas tree. This is something we do every year and I don't think I could do it any other way. The kids love being able to wander through the field and choose the "perfect" tree. I like the tree to be pretty tall, but not too fat. Every year, Mike and I have a very spirited debate over what that means exactly. It never fails, he always picks a tree that is seven or eight feet across at the bottom. I'm sure he will do the same this year. That's ok, it's all part of the fun. Then, he cuts it down with a saw as sharp as a butter knife. Hehehe, I really should buy him a new one. Maybe this year, he can pass that job off to one of the boys. They would love to use a saw. Boys are like that you know. Well, wish me luck. I'm sure it will be a day to remember. Just the way I like it:)
