The Tree–Part 1

imageThis year we decided to try Connecticut for a Christmas tree after last year’s trek northward in New York took hours. Of course there was an article in the NY Times the following week about how Fairfield County had the highest tree prices in the nation so maybe CT wasn’t the most economical locale, but it was closer. Owen had fun because we took a hayride out into the fields of trees (he likes tractors). He also enjoyed wielding the saw which perhaps wasn’t the best thing for a two-year old to play with, but he carried it safely and used it wisely, only sawing stumps.imageThis photo of Joel and poor little dead tree was a joke at the time, but little did we know that it was in fact an omen, a peek into the future. Go the “The Tree–Part 3″ to see how our story ends.
