We have a Christmas tree!!

FedEx brings free Christmas trees to most of the major military posts in the US and also send trees to several of the overseas posts for soldiers, spouses of deployed soldiers, and wounded warriors. So I went down to the tree depot today and picked out a 5-6 ft. Balsam Fir for us. Thank you FedEx!!

At home I used a saw to cut the bottom 1/2 inch off - and yes, I still have all of my fingers and the saw was put away properly!

Here's the kids with the tree just after I got it upright in the stand. (I took the pictures with the webcam).

We'll be decorating this week and we'll post pictures of the finished tree!
