So yesterday my family FINALLY decided it was time to go cut down a Christmas tree. Which may I say is one of my favorite traditions. After church, we bundled up and headed out to the tree farm. Even though I was thrilled we were going I had to continually brush off my mom saying "Maybe we should just buy a fake tree this year". I just kept reminding my family this is probably the last Christmas that I will be able to go pick out a tree with them (because next year I'll be living at a college). When my dad went to turn into the drive for the farm I was instantly filled with horror we saw fateful words on my wonderful tree farm
"CLOSED FOR THE SEASON"...WHAT!!!!!!
"CLOSED FOR THE SEASON"...WHAT!!!!!!
My jaw dropped. I may I have shed a tear...or 2.
So in order to not lose time we kept driving. We showed up at the next farm, which did not compared to my farm for 3 reasons...
- My tree farm was CLOSED and
- This tree farm looked diddly squat to my favored farm.
- They were more expensive.
We looked around and saw nothing. Hopped back in the car laughing and shaking our heads at what a disappointment that was. We then drove on to the next farm....and to add to the disappointment,
it closed at 4:00 p.m.. We showed up at 4:02 p.m.
I was upset very upset. Then I had to listen to my sisters and mother say "Well, guess we will maybe get our fake tree a year early", which I had to remind them again, how that was not an option. We then proceeded home, with no hot cider, no candy cane, no tree and one very sad child (i.e.-me).
May I add my dad was totally agreeing with me about getting a real tree. I mean the smells, the memories. It's all in the real tree. (Not kidding people)
When we got home I taught my dad how to play speed. I won.
That was my wonderful Sunday. I am not gonna say it wasn't funny, because it was. 100% hilarious, but I am still really sad my favorite farm is closed.
Tonight I am getting my hair cut! (Round of clapping and some yippee's insert here)
After dinner and haircuts, my sisters and I will trek south for the evening, and tomorrow we head to Portland!
I am beyond excited because I get to go to a concert to see my favorite band
Mumford & Sons!!!!! SO SO SO happy about that! Now....what am I going to wear??? Suggestions would be moocho appreciated.
Happy Monday!
