Jared's First Christmas Tree!

After Thanksgiving dinner at home with the kids we decided to go get our Christmas Tree up and start getting ready for the Christmas season. Too bad our 4ft pre-lit tree wasn't working, somehow the lights weren't lighting! So we packed up all the kids and went shopping for a new tree, but we didn't find one! A few days later, after spending 2 to 3 hrs online we found a place with the tree that we wanted, so again we packed up the kids and headed out in the snow for a tree, but by the time that we got there the tree that we wanted had been sold out! What were we going to do?
We called some friends and asked where they knew there we trees still left to purchase, and we found one, it wasn't the one I wanted... I wanted a 6ft PRE-LIT tree, but Jared got a regular 6ft tree. Imagine my disappointment when we found out that we had to assemble every single branch, then put lights on and finally decorations.
By the time that we managed to set up the branches the way we wanted it, it was way to late to keep the kids up and had to send them to bed! Jared stayed up to watch mom and dadput up the decoartions, he thought they were something to look at for sure! Once everything was on the tree and we made sure it looked half-way decent, we got a pic of Little Red next to his first ( very dificult to obtain) Christmas Tree... and he just loved it!
