It’s the Most Wonderful Time…

…to get a Christmas Tree!

Anthony and I went to Moore Tree Farm in Lansing on Saturday to pick out my FIRST ever live tree!  What a fun time!  That place is amazing!  Baby was kicking with approval, and we can’t wait to bring him back in the coming years to enjoy being pulled around in wagon to pick out a tree… or ride the ponies!  The staff helped us find a type of tree that was “cat friendly”; i.e. a blue spruce with sharp pointy cactus-like needles they’d be unlikely to climb in.  So far, so good (knock on wood).
