LOL. A story about Dairy's Christmas Tree.

[Deleted]

The people who own a big green house in our area also sell Christmas trees come winter in their shop they grew on the farm.

Every year H and I go. We fight. I like the tall, spindly, short needle Depression Era looking trees. H likes long needle, short and bushy.

H decided this year Rubes gets to the pick the tree.
The first tree she stands by is ours.

I'm scared...lol. The kid better get my good taste.

[mrsemilys]

Hilarious! Good luck!

[bunnymendelbaum]

Start coaching her now! Ha!

They mostly only grow the short needle ones here. I let DH pick because he loves it. I grew up on fake trees!

[MrsMB]

This is just awesome Do we get to see the final tree that made the cut?

[lmbml]

Awesome, hope she picks a good one! I get my way every year, a fake white tree! Lol but I love it so much, I will use it til it doesn't light up anymore!

[kaylie]

I love it! At least if you end up with a less than desirable tree you'll love it anyway because she picked it. If she picks up a branch and runs towards you with it, are you going Charlie Brown style this year?

This made me chuckle because we always went to a tree farm to pick our tree and I always got to pick it out. I like fat and my mom always hated it because she wanted slender. Hey at least my dad and I always agreed.
Added funny story our christmas tree guy was invited to my wedding but he did watch me grow up and always always always remember my name.

I would start coaching her like Bunny said. Too funny! You will have to show us what she ends up picking!

[davescatch]

LOL - you must share what she picks! I'm thinking it will be like the little Charlie Brown Xmas tree (all it needs is a little love....).

[adhdfashion]

That sounds scary! LOL Mia would pick out a biggest tree she could find.

[TBM]

Won't the first tree she stands by be pretty much the first tree she sees? lol


I would make it be the first tree that she actually chooses (this one!) that is the height that you really want, so that you don't wind up with either extreme.

[emoflamingo]

I think you sneak there and put a toy in your favorite tree ahead of time. Then she'll see the toy and go "yep!" and stand by it. Well, be in the tree trying to get the toy.

Ha! We have to get the rules a little more down first.
She is the sort of kid though to tear off at the door and run straight to the back. So it definitely won't be the first tree.
