It's so pretty!!! I wish we could get a real tree but I'm very allergic. Picking it out is fun I bet!

Your tree is really pretty. I wish we could go to a tree farm. Here in Florida there is no such thing. You buy fresh trees at temporary corner lots.....in 80 degree weather!

Your tree is so beautiful! We've never bought a real tree before, at least not that I can remember! I've always envisioned that it would end up being a Griswald family experience! :D I also really like the sno effect on your page! I may have to try that! ;)

I love the snow falling on your blog. We had a dusting Sunday night, just enough for me! Thanks again for inspiring me to make the ornamnets. I love them!
Your room looks so pretty with your tree. I love what lights do to a room.

The tree looks so pretty, as does the mantle. How fun to have this family outting. Great togetherness!
We used to do this growing up. Jason and I had a real tree one year. Long story but he said no more...we have fake ones now! But one day I'll convince him to get one more real one to make that memory for our kiddos!
Glad you got to!
Merry December!!! Les

I love Christmas tree farms! Yours looks so pretty! We have our tiny little fake one up, but it's not decorated yet. Oh well, I'll get it done sometime!

Everything looks so pretty! It looks like you guys had a blast at the tree farm. We use a fake tree every year but growing up we had real ones. I kind of miss it!

I absolutely love how everything looks, Carrie...awesome job! Just sit back now and enjoy the fruits of your labor.

You family is adorable. I love the tree, it looks magical. We have a fake tree cause my hubs doesn't believe in cutting down a real tree (party pooper). But, this post brought back memories of the journey every year with my parents. We would go to the tree farm, find a good tree and then have to search around for 2 hours in the cold to "make sure it was the right one." By the time my dad admitted that the first one really was the best, we coulnd't find it and we were losing limbs to frostbite. =) They were really good memories.... haha. They are in Arizona now so we don't have to worry about frostbite so much.
