Christmas tree, Charlie Brown style.

December 5, 2011 by Adrienne

Last year, I wrote this post about our back pasture Christmas tree. (Click on “This Post”.)

Yesterday, we headed up the hill to see if we could find another one. Turns out, the trees grew substantially this year. It’s still very Charlie Brown, but this year’s tree is quite a bit fuller than last year.

We had Blaine along this year, and last year it was Charlotte in the sling. Pierce took her place in the sling this year. Charlotte was pretty happy to have her Daddy. We even found an antler in the grass up there.

Blaine had grander ideas of what “chopping” means. My handsaw and I were out of business.

The top is too soft to hold up the star, and the ornaments hang more from the lights than the branches, but oh, we had fun. And this one, unlike last year, does not smell like a cat used it as a litter box. Merry Christmas!
