The Day After Thanksgiving
Ahhh, traditions . . .
Waking up at 4am to head out to buy those "Holiday bargains" . . .
Wondering WHY I was up at 4am to get those bargains . . .
Continuing to ponder that same question as I stood in long lines to buy those bargains . . .
Realizing just before 7am that Fred Meyer was giving away FREE coffee and donut holes . . .
PRICELESS!
But, my favorite tradition . . . finding our Christmas TREE !
This year was even more fun because Nick was so excited about getting a tree. 
He RAN all the way down the path leading the way. Even though the sun was out, it was still a bit chilly with a few icy patches on the ground. We found the perfect tree in no time at all. John did the sawing, while I held onto the tree. Nick supervised. Then, Nick and John carted the tree back up to the entrance for a good "shake" before heading home.

You mean, you did this all in the same day?! 4:00am shopping, AND Christmas tree hunting? Brave woman, you!
