A shop right down the street from us carries Christmas trees. There's limited quantity, so we stalk the area until we see the trees all nicely propped up and then go in the dark of night to pick the best one. Instead of taking the time to tie it to the car, we Wade drags it home. It almost looks like we just chopped this tree down in our neighborhood to take home with us.
We got the tree before Thanksgiving and have been storing it in our garage until this week. Here's Wade dragging the tree into the house.
What a great tradition, and how lovely your house looks. I remember carrying a tree home about a mile or so, single-handed, a few years back. Lucky you having someone to do it for you! I'm looking forward to seeing yours once it's decorated, if you decide to post a picture of it. Hope you have fun doing it Kari.
ReplyDeleteYou are one strong lady! I did try to drag it a bit, but ended up getting sap everywhere:( I will post a picture once it's decorated! Hope you are having a great day!
DeleteHey, that's nice that the place is so close by, and it's a good thing you have a strong man to do the muscle work of getting it home! But I can imagine that the scene might look a little funny to people driving by!
ReplyDeleteI am lucky he did the bulk of the work:) Hope you're having a great day!
DeleteI love these pictures, especially the first and second ones. What a fun tradition! I was driving home from Walmart and saw an SUV with a Christmas tree on top, and it gave me warm fuzzies. :) Real Christmas trees also remind me of "Christmas Vacation." HA!
