Can We Get an 8 Footer???

Finding the perfect tree is always an adventure for us.  Andy is very specific, and Bennett is very particular, (darn Scorpios) and Harper is anxious and I am cheap.  This year, we stopped at the local Lion's Club tree stand, and we were able to please everyone.  Except maybe the girl - she would have preferred to stay in the car, and watch Dora.  We forced her participation, even though it was Bennett's year to pick the tree.  Aside note:  I did not know we took turns with the tree selection.  Bennett used his steel trap of a memory, and reminded us that H had picked last year's tree, so this was HIS YEAR.

So, we got the tree, and while it was not 8 feet, it was close.  (and it was only $35!!)

Decorations were strewn about, there were some tears, and sharing exercises, and we got that pine beautifully adorned.


And then, in true Prose kid fashion, we took the obligatory picture in front of the tree.
Shirtless.
