So many of you have the tradition of going to the mountains to cut your Christmas tree, so you'll probably laugh at our tradition (for 26 years now).

When the kids were little, we would go to McDonald's afterwards with our leftover money.

We then spent the afternoon and early evening listening to Christmas music and decorating the tree. Here's the end result:

What a beautiful tree!! I love the flocking especially. Love that tradition too. We haven't gone to cut a tree for many years either.
ReplyDeleteI think that is a great tradition!
