O Christmas Tree!
We've gone to the same tree farm every year since we moved to Pittsburgh, and this year we got another beauty. Sure, it's cold, stressful, and irritating. Isn't that why we love to do it? It gives you a sense of accomplishment at the end! Plus, who wouldn't want to continue with traditions like stopping at the same restaurant every year because it sounds like the tree is ripping the roof off of our car? (One of these years we'll remember to bring a blanket instead of a tarp). Really though, it has its bright spots, too. Joseph and Nora had a great time looking for the right tree, and isn't that what it's all about? :) We can buy one at Costco when they are teens and don't care anymore - even if it will make me cry myself to sleep that night. Hahaha!
