It’s official. We got our Christmas tree today. Woo! We took the easy route this year and headed to Allston to pick out a tree at the Boston Christmas Trees Christmas tree lot, and boy is it a beauty. The last two years we headed out to Marlborough, Mass to the Houdes Christmas tree farm. There is something special about tromping through the mud to cut down your own tree. We would have done it again this year had we had time, but alas, we did not. I have to admit that this is the most perfect tree we’ve ever had. I’m just in love with it. Couldn’t stop grinning today as we were setting it up. Smells amazing too…..
More pictures soon once the lights and decorations are in order!!
The Santa Clause. An instant classic from the moment it came out back in 1994. I still remember just loving that little elf Judy and wishing that I too could be eating hot chocolate (shaken, not stirred!) and working away in Santa’s workshop, pointy ears and all. Tim Allen’s great in this one too. He does, after all, bring Neil the weenie whistle. Even though Neil doesn’t believe. Silly Neil!!
