Typically, we cut it down on the Friday after Thanksgiving.

However, this year, the business, with tours and walk-throughs, made it so that we couldn’t do it on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday.

So, Wednesday was the day we set out to find a tree … and on our own property!

With 5 wooded acres, there were plenty of trees to be found!

We didn’t need a permit.

We didn’t need to drive anywhere.

Naturally, we had to get one that was tall enough to reach up to the kids loft.

It’s about 14 feet tall … and perfect!

It was a fun year to find a tree.
