Oh Christmas Tree...


This past weekend we took a trip to the old Christmas tree farm at the Navy Exchange! Every year we've gone to a tree farm and have cut down our own.  This year was a little different and we had to go to the base store:)  So in Spain when one get's their tree they get roots and all!!!  What one has to do they have to buy a pot and pot their tree as tree stands aren't used!!  So that's exactly what we did with our 5ft. tree.  Drew loved the chnage to get his hands dirty!


Claie and I were the boyzzzz boss and told them when the tree was straight!

So...Drew had a little to much fun in the dirt and water and needed to leave his pants outside before coming in:)

And the final touch of the white lights.  We left most of our decorations in the states as we didn't want things to break on the move over and our storage is very limited.  Drew and Claire don't mind at all and think it's awesome to have a tree in the house with lights!

So what happens to the tree at 1 p.m. on Dec. 25th? Do you plant it or toss it?

And where is that BRIGHT PINK ornament? I know you didn't leave it behind in order to give the movers a crack at breaking it.
