Live Christmas tree!

We've never gotten a live tree since we've been married and I'd been feeling the itch for a live one for a couple years. Since we'll be in town for Christmas this year (and because, well, 2020...) we decided to give it a try. There's a tree farm less than 2 miles from our house so we decided to shop local and pick one ourselves. There were lots of great options!

There it is!

Willow helped cut it down!

The kittens had to check it out! 

The kids enjoyed helping to decorate the tree. We  had to opt out of using some of the heavier ornaments because we were surprised how much the branches would sag under the weight of some. 

I always love a good flashback (2014):

The kittens have done a good job of leaving the ornaments alone. Tilly especially enjoys laying under the tree.
