Usually, our family will go out to a tree farm and chop down a tree. This means some friendly arguing over which tree to take, some glühwein, followed by some more discussion on how to get the tree home!!! Every year same story. Except for this year…..our artificial, yet pretty graces the  living room this year. We will be away for Christmas Day, so it just did not make financial sense to get a real one. I think it looks pretty good and the other day our tree got the best compliment it could get—a visitor thought the tree was a real one!

Happy 4th Advent Everyone
