Christmas Tree Time

It is Christmas time again and we love ourselves a good Christmas tree.  It is too bad we live too far away from the areas that the allow you to cut down your own trees, as I am sure the kids would love that adventure.

However, here is a tree acquired just down the street at the fine King Soopers establishment.  I usually contribute to the gathering and standing up of the tree while Tara and the kids tend to adorning it with lights and ornaments.  It is always kind of a stressful time, but once we have it up and decorated it is so nice to look at the tree at night as the lights flicker and glow.  I think the kids both steal a "cut" of the bottom of the tree as well to stick in their rooms to spread a little pine smell around.
