It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Jack, Evan and I set out on Friday (thank God for self employment freedom!) to get our Christmas tree. Jack grew up going to Bob's Trees which is about 45 minutes from our house. In our married Christmases together we've gotten from Bob's twice and been very happy, even with their pre-cuts. We got our tree from other places the other two Christmases and boy did they shed! I didn't care what it took this year, we were getting our tree from Bob's! So after a 45 minute drive out, we bundled Evan up and stepped out on the lot of precuts. I picked up the very first tree we walked by and that was the one. Jack felt that the long drive warranted some further shopping so we picked up a few others just for kicks, knowing full well we were going back to the first one. So after a 45 minute drive, 1 minute on the lot, and a 45 minute drive home... we had our tree!
