Buying our Christmas Tree

Last year, we started a new family tradition of getting a real Christmas tree!  My husband and kids really wanted to so that’s what we did and I love it too.

Because it was soooo cold when we went,  we just purchased a precut tree instead of heading out in the woods to find the perfect tree.  We were all okay with that since we couldn’t wait to get inside to drink the hot apple cider.

We had fun looking around and trying all the samples.

Then we enjoyed some delicious hot cocoa and cider along with fresh, homemade doughnuts.
