I haven't had a REAL Christmas tree since, I was like, 5. My parents bought an artificial one, and we decorated that every year. Now I know why. Randy and I decided that this year we would buy a REAL one because in his family they always bought a REAL one. I didn't mind. I was actually kind of excited. We went to the lot, in the rain, got muddy, spent more than our budget, had to stop off at OSH to buy a tree stand because Target was all sold out, brought the sucker home, stuffed it into the stand, took over an hour to water it because Randy forgot to trim off the bottom branches and it was hard to reach the stand, tried to keep Cameron away because he kept eating the needles and would then throw them up, oh and speaking of the needles-they are EVERYWHERE!
ARTIFICIAL tree next year.

We agree with Grammy and Grandpa Mike, the pictures are priceless!
We're looking forward to sharing you 4 with all of the Garibay family on Christmas Eve.
Love,
Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Hector
At some point when Hattie and Celie are old enough to understand, you have to do a real one so they can experience both! Until the, I'm with you, artificial is the way to go. Too bad my husband disagrees :(
