It's our first Christmas as Mr. & Mrs. Rothlisberger!
So of course we decided to go out of our way to make it the best experience.
Well, at least it was an experience...
Look at all those pretty Christmas trees.
The Husband and I did exactly that.
We spent 4 hours walking around this tree farm!!
I found something wrong with every tree...
And No, I am not being too picky. For what a nice tree was going to cost us,
it had better be pretty close to perfect.
Photo shoot time! We had to spice this day up a little bit, because things were going
downhill fast.

As we entered our 4th hour searching for our tree, everyone was getting a little fatigued.
The dog began gulping mouth fulls of mud because she was so thirsty.
The husband was tired of pulling around a heavy tree cart... still empty.
And me, well I just hate walking for long periods of time, especially when it's cold.
He's so sad...
Finally, we ended up leaving WITHOUT a tree!
We were tired and muddy and treeless, but the worse part of all was having to walk past the farm owner on our way out. I mean what do you say to the guy 4 hours later...
'Thanks for letting us walk around your giant farm,
Sorry, we just couldn't find a good one out of the hundreds of trees ya have here...'
Awkward!
But don't worry,
we played it off real cool - a little smile and a confident walk showed the owner,
this was what we meant to do the whole time.

Tomorrow we're out to find that illusive perfect tree.
Who knows where we'll end up?
