Our Crooked Christmas Tree


The day we got our 4th live Christmas Tree.  It was slim pickings at West Seattle nursery today.  All the live Frasier Firs were gone.  Eli insisted on getting a purple Christmas Tree.  After 15 minutes of looking at live trees and thinking they were pretty sad.  We looked at the cut ones as well.  Normally we usually go for a small tree cause of our limited space in our house and the bay window we put it up in.  We did not find many small cut trees so back we went to the live trees.  After giving the live ones a second look I read the label on this tree.  It blooms purple pine cones.  I thought it turns purple in one way or another we'll take it!  I also think that the top looks like it's flipping someone off.  Which given my pregnancy hormones that day that is kinda how I felt.  Eli loved pushing the cart around and was very happy they had cider inside.  We also purchased a $2 dollar ornament which was a glass lollipop.  Eli had said he wanted to decorate the tree in lollipops earlier that week.  Decorated tree picture to come later...
