O Tannenbaum

Earlier this month we went to a Christmas tree farm and got ourselves a little tree! It was cold, and all the trees were covered in snow, so it just added to the Christmas "feel". You could either buy one they had cut down or cut your own. Due to the 2 feet of snow surrounding the trees, we chose to just pick out one that they had already cut down. 

It was so pretty ... 


After they wrapped up our tree, the sweet Germans gave Kason a little mini-tree. It was pretty awesome - even if it's still sitting un-decorated in his room, 4 days before Christmas. 



Because we don't have any of my Christmas decorations here, we have started from scratch on Christmas ornaments hence the slightly Charlie Brown level of decor on the tree. But, it's a tree - and it's ours! 


They sell these awesome stars over here that I am pretty much in love with. This is our make-shift tree topper. 


One of my favorite things about Christmas is the glow of the Christmas lights on the tree at night ... add a cup of hot cocoa and the husband and you've got a perfect night. I love Christmas & I love having a tree up.
