Hey guys! I wanted to share with you this year's Christmas tree. I was on the hunt for a tree that had more defined branches then the Frasier firs that we have had in the past.

In other years we've had the tree in the corner of the living room or even in the entry way, but READ MORE Hey guys! I wanted to share with you this year's Christmas tree.
