Today Marcel and I made great use of our afternoon and went out on the quest for the perfect Christmas tree. I don’t generally like using the word perfect for anything, because I think that there is too much focus on the word perfect, which creates sometimes unrealistic expecatations. I knew our quest would mean perfect for us, and within moments of beginning our Christmas tree search, we’d found just what we were looking for.
The bonus- was that the store we’d purchased our tree from, was offering a 20.00 gift card for anyone who purchased a real tree over the price of 24.95, for use in their store at a later date! SOLD! It was really busy there today. There were plenty of people looking for Christmas decorations and other gift items, but everyone seemed cheerful. I love that, and of course, it only made the shopping adventure more joyful!
So now our beautiful tree is sitting in a pail of water awaiting it’s decoration day. We are a little late with our tree this year, but some things are worth waiting for, and a Christmas tree is definitely one of those somethings. Not to mention, we were traveling last week.
Let the festivities begin!
