Oh Christmas Tree!

With our second baby's due date looming, we thought it wise to get the Christmas tree early this year. We returned to the cut-your-own-tree-place nearby, but that experience wasn't nearly as exciting as the fact that our tree just wouldn't stay up when we got it home.

Here, Nick and Nola hunt down the perfect tree


Looks like they found it!
Note: Nola's rock/dirt clod collection continues to grow with each outing.


Poor Nick, it took nearly three hours for him to maneuver this 10+foot tree into our little tree base (as Nola and I could only watch and offer him an occasional, "Good job, Daddy!")


After all that, it still managed to topple over during the night,
so Nick finally conceded and tethered the tree to the curtain rods on either side.


Good job, Daddy!
