This year I decided to buy my own real Christmas tree, and am so glad that I did. Buying the tree was and adventure all by itself that included some backwoods tree salesmen, learning about different tree varieties , texting chacha for help, negotiating tree prices, and having some sap shoved in my face, all of this while being out in the freezing cold. It was such a funny experience. I found a Douglas Fir that I loved, and after some intense negotiating I was able to take it home.
I love my tree!
My eclectic tree has ornaments from different trips that I have been on, and some ornaments that I got long ago. I love all of the memories on it. My new travel additions this year are: the Twin Spires at Church Hill Downs in Kentucky, a wood carved whale tail from Sea World in San Diego, and a salmon from Seattle.
