Our Christmas Tree

Last Tuesday, Cody and I picked out our Christmas tree!

I think this has to be my favorite Christmas tradition.
I love braving the cold. Walking through the isles of trees. Smelling the piney fragrance. 
It just screams, "CHRISTMAS IS HERE!"

Last Tuesday, we definitely had to brave the cold...and the rain.
We've been drenched with rain for the last week [not even exaggerating].
We rushed the picking a tree process, just so we could get out of the cold and rain, but we found a BEAUTIFUL tree that I'm completely in love with.

Our Engagement Ornament
I made this ornament with my 5th grade class last year. Eventually, I want a separate small tree in my house of all the different ornaments I have made with all my classes over the years!

When the tree goes up, it's officially Christmas!

What's your favorite Christmas tradition y'all?

  7. Love the little snowman AND the engagement ornament! I think you should totally have another tree for your class ornaments--such a great idea! One of our traditions is getting ugly ornaments and putting them in each others stocking throughout the Christmas season...no one wants to be the person that ends up with the ugly ornaments :)
