Christmas tree

I cut down my first Christmas tree today in honor of Lucas's first Christmas. It was a decent work out and our house has the most amazing pine scent right now. There is no comparison to any tree I've purchased on a tree lot. We went to a great family run tree farm in Oregon City named Deininger Farms. They are family and pet friendly and have a great selection of trees to choose and cut.  If you do Christmas trees, support this family! The trees cost $20 and are far higher quality than anything on the lots around Portland. Bring a little muscle and some rope to tie the tree down -- they'll supply the hot chocolate. Merry Christmas ...
