Our Perfect Tree

My husband and I have been married eleven years and throughout our eleven years of marriage, we never had a real Christmas tree, we used a faux tree that we purchased when we lived in Germany.  This year we decided to get a real Christmas tree for our new home.  It will be my 
son's and my husband's first real tree.

This particular tree farm sprayed some of their trees with a special green paint to keep it fresh
and green.  I did not want anything with paint, especially with two asthmatics in the house.
I wanted the real deal 100% all natural.  So we kept looking.


This was the one, the right height, thickness and all natural.  
When we brought it home the entire house had that fabulous scent
of fresh blue cypress pine.
We love, love, love our new natural tree!
Now all we need to do is to decorate it!
What's your preference real or faux?
