Last Saturday {Dec 3} was a rainy, cold, rainy day – lots of rain! – Did I mention it rained here ALL day?! And we were out for cantata practice, an oil change, and a little shopping. Thankfully, Tim was the driver who got us where we needed to go : ) And it wasn’t buckets of snow. Not ready for that yet.
Sunday afternoon was a better time to visit the very busy Christmas tree patch down the road. By then the rain had changed over to a light dusting of snow.
And the search was on…

Decision Time!
Oh happy day!
After church Sunday night, we brought the tree inside and put the lights on it…
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
Du kannst mir sehr gefallen!
{O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree, Of all the trees most lovely}

What a beautiful tree and what memories in getting it and putting it up. It's been longer than I can remember since we had a real tree, shame on me! :o)
