Christmas Tree Hunting





The Christmas tree purchase wasn't as easy as we thought it would be. We gathered ourselves up for some Christmas tree hunting yesterday and hunting we did. We are lucky to have a Christmas tree farm right across the street and went there with high hopes. We have a very large two story family room and wanted a grand tree to go in there. We started walking the tree farm with our wagon and saw in hand and realized that we might not find it here. Chris was nice enough to run ahead of us to see if he could find a tree that would work. In the meantime, Ellie informed me that she had to go potty. There were no bathrooms around and we were left with the great outdoors as our only option. Ellie wasn't shy about it and dropped her pants and got down to business. My husband was coming up the hill and couldn't believe his eyes when he caught a glimpse of Ellie's two little cheeks hanging out. Although, I am not sure why he was surprised since he has been known to do this same thing in public places. We hope we didn't ruin any one's Christmas tree experience. We headed out of there right afterwards and went to the Purcellville fire house and found the perfect tree for our family Christmas.

I can't believe you wrote about Chris' public urination on a family friendly blog! That story cracks me up every time I hear it!
