Last weekend we bought a Christmas tree. Last year we loved our Austrian pine, so we aimed to get the same this year. They were fresh out of pre-cuts, so we decided to head out into the vast field with saw and cart and cut our down. When we've done this before it hasn't always been a great experience, but I am happy to say this time the boys loved it (Josh helped the with cart, and Sam made huge, huge snowballs) and we managed to find a tree we really like. It's a Scotch pine, whose needles aren't as long as the Austrian, but it's drinking really well and we love it.

| It was just above freezing, which meant the snow was heavy and a little damp, making it perfect packing snow. |

| Here it is! Maybe this weekend we decorate it... |

| Amazing what romance can be inspired by the right atmosphere. :-) |
