Well, it's after Thanksgiving so officially we can decorate for Christmas. Now, to start that off you need a Christmas tree. For all the years of our children we have utilized artificial pre-lit trees. They are pretty, and have served us well. However, with our vaulted ceilings we have been using 8 and 9 foot trees, and they take up ALOT of room to store. Each year, more lights were out and you had to add lights to it. We decided to change gears. So we loaded up the 4 wheel drive diesel sleigh and headed off to Chunky, MS to the Lazy Acres Christmas tree farm.
You park up at main area and they bring you to the actual tree location via covered wagon.
You roam about until you find the one you like. After about 30 minutes we located the living room jewel!
DD did the selfie for us.
They cut it down and take it back up to the farm where they wrap it for you and load it up. You can take pics while they work. The farm has a lot of outdoor activities including a Christmas lights wagon ride. I'll post more in minute.
We got her home and stood up. Notice the television...
Then we cut the netting. Got a little trimming to do. DW had changed channel to one of my favorites too.
Next post I'll put up pics of the tour of the Christmas lights at the farm.
