The Tree Comes Inside Today!!!

Its been resting on the back porch for a few days, enjoying the fantastically pleasant weather we've been having before coming in to go to work! In the "olden days" of our marriage getting a tree involved slowly cruising a country road ( yes back then there were country roads where the traffic wasnt going 70mph!) Spotting  the perfect candidate I would hop out, saw it down, stuff it in car and we'd head home ( to our 20 year old mobile home that is!) We were oblivious to cedar pollen then, not about to spend 15$ to buy a real tree, and under NO CIRCUMSTANCES would have considered an artificial one!

We still top the tree with the very same star-angel we placed on our first tree! We were blessed to lift our daughter up to place that star for so many years! Finally, she had to use a ladder,,,, I Dont need Your Help Daddy!  She will be here with us to celebrate Christmas, just hasn't been here to place that star! Ahhhh So glad she has her own life, that we're still a part of it, but.........

 Full Disclosure!  Still no artificial trees!!! Absolutely not! But Hallie wouldnt need a ladder now, Do you know how much an eight foot tree sells for???? Its insane what even a five foot one costs! We wont be cutting a cedar tree for inside, although we have way too many growing on our own land now, but theres nothing stopping us from taking the decorations out side!
