| This tree is Charlie Size! |
It's Christmas Tree day! Cory and I decided that we are going to start a new tradition this year and get our Christmas Tree from a tree farm in Canton where you can cut your own Christmas tree down. It was about an hour drive out to Yesterland Farm in Canton, but we spend the time listening to Christmas music and reading about the tradition and history of the Christmas tree.
When we got there we were excited to see all the rides, food, and activities along with many Christmas Trees for sale. Even though Charlie is too small to appreciate the activities, this looks like a place we would like to come to year after year when she can have fun riding the rides and shooting corn! Cory and I didn't ride any rides but we definitely shot some corn! That was fun! We also got some awesome Cream Soda from a barrel and ate a Corny dog and BBQ. We had a great time together getting our Christmas Tree and made our way back home to put it up and decorate it!
When we got the tree home it was much bigger in our house than it looked out at the tree farm but it looks amazing in our living room! We decorated the tree with baby pink and pastel purple for Charlie. Last year we had a Wedding tree celebrating 2011 as the year we got married so we used all of our wedding decorations to decorate our Christmas tree. Not only was it inexpensive but it was also a nice way to commemorate an important milestone in our lives. 2012 was definitely all about Charlie so it only makes sense to make our 2012 Christmas tree a baby tree for Charlie. It turned out beautifully! :) Now that the Christmas tree is up, it really is Christmas time and I am so happy to celebrate it every day from now until December 25th!
