It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

Now that Thanksgiving has come and gone, the countdown is on to Christmas, my favorite holiday!  With less than a month to go until the big day, there are all sorts of things to get done, like wrapping presents, baking cookies, and decorating the tree.  We decided to go buy a tree Saturday night after the much needed heavy rain.  The Nutrition Nazi said it best when he mentioned that we hardly ever do anything on a small scale.

Here is our tree laying on the ground.  It does not look so big, right?

Here is NN standing next to it once it was it was righted.  NN is 6'5".

I know the pics are a little grainy, but here we have 3 of the workers with a ladder trying to put a bag over the tree for the ride home.  It did not work.

I like that they were concerned about the weight of the tree on top of the Tahoe.

Fortunately we managed to get it inside, though it is a tad bit bigger than we thought.  Now we just need a cherry picker to decorate it!
