After a house full of Thanksgiving company and our third trip to Dulles, Don and I decided to head a little further out and cut down our Christmas tree in Middleburg, VA. This is the third year we have cut a fresh tree and we really enjoy it. Not only are the tree farms usually in pretty areas and a lot of fun, but the trees last a lot longer.
The tree farm we picked this year had a lot of cute animals.
Like donkeys:
And goats:
And buffalo:
But, the real reason we were there was to cut down a tree. We ended up getting a fluffy, long needle tree which is a very different style for us.
As we left, the sun was slipping down beyond the mountains.

Yay for the tree! What I want to know, though, is this: Before you decided that you wanted to spend the rest of your life with Don, did you make sure to check on his allergic-to-tree status?
