This year we broke with tradition and didn't buy our tree at the Home Depot.  Although Zoe loves teh Depot, the experience isn't quite the same.  There is a cute little farm off Grant Road near the house.  In October they have Pumpkins, and at Christmas they sell trees.  They get really into things-  there's a little train, some goats and mules, peacocks, and a bunch of stuff to make kids excited.  Zoe had a blast.  Here are a few pics of Zoe with the livestock.

There's one tradition we've done every year- a picture of Zoe with the tree when we bring it home.  Here are the first three Christmas trees our daughter has known.

Some Christmas trees have an angel on the top.  Ours has the angel underneath.
