She also finished her first drink all my herself!
Then Natalie got home from a long three months away in Chicago.
And the Thom family finally got their Christmas tree.
And we decorated it all in the same day.
Picking our Christmas tree used to be a big family event. When we were younger one night in early December we would get all bundled up and head out to the local Christmas tree lot. We would run through the trees and play hide and go seek or tag. While the kids and my dad were goofing off my mom would search for the perfect tree, she had requirements that none of us really knew.
This year, we waited for everyone to be home and then ended up at a Home Depot lot, where I picked up one tree and we bought it.It has gotten so simple. Well some traditions begin to fade as we grow up.
Well someday Tyler and I will start our own traditions with our own family (no worries, it is still years away!!)
