2016 Christmas Tree

Time to get the tree!
We love going to pick out the Christmas tree!

And it's tradition to just pick one without unwrapping it. This one felt like the right one. 

We always drink sparkling cider and champagne (Mom) and listen to the Nutcracker while we decorate the tree. We love unwrapping all the ornaments and memories that go with them. Mom has some from the year she was born!
Turned out pretty good!

Until we came back from visiting Santa and found it like this. Ugh! We lost about 1/4 of our ornaments in the this Great Christmas Tree Crash of '16, but we got a bigger stand, got the tree back up, and are back in business. Auntie Leslie even bought us a new pickle ornament since ours broke! Guess we should've upgraded our 6-7' tree stand once we got a 9' tree. Eep!  We out-Griswalded ourselves yet again.
