This week was a bit of a whirlwind for the both of us. TGFTW.
Thank Goodness For The Weekend.
Today we went hunting for a Christmas tree. Since we are in "Texas Forest Country" here in Nacogdoches, it was only appropriate that we cut our own Christmas tree! We explored our options, avoiding the tree farm with the genetically modified trees, and ventured out northwest of town to the Diamond K Christmas Tree Farm.
Sarah drove the boys in the Versa, and I took the old pickup to handle the tree. When we arrived, we put the sprouts in Moby wraps and ventured onto the farm. As it turns out, the farm owner knew us. The owner is also the co-owner of the real estate company that represented our house when we bought it. Small towns can be scary like that sometimes!

After a thorough search of the farm, the sprouts decided on the perfect tree for our first house.

Cutting our own tree and getting the sprouts' photos with Santa are two goals for this Christmas. One down, one to go. When Santa arrives by sailboat at the Houston Yacht Club on the 20th, we'll be there!
