This weekend Jo helped us pick out her first tree at Evergreen Farms.

 

Accio Christmas Tree!

 

 

Helping Daddy chop it down.

This tree belonged to Jo’s great great grandmother on my father’s side. I am very grateful to have it! 🙂

 

And behold! The final product… this year we have more of a Christmas… Shrubbery. Most of the “regularly shaped” trees on the farm were about 5 feet tall (somewhat stunted from drought). We decided to go for a larger one that had a bit more… character. After Jo went to bed this evening, the tree fell over and we got to redecorate a bit. 🙂 Never a dull moment around here! 🙂
