The trees looks so much smaller in the lot. But when you get it home, it seems to have grown. My habit is to select a bigger tree, but Christina knows me, so today she measured the room to be sure the tree would be the correct height when we brought it home. Sure enough. She was correct.
This morning, Molly, Christina and I went to Lakeland Garden Shop to buy a Christmas tree. It took us five minutes to select the tree. Christina had decided on a 6 foot tree, so we looked at the correct row. I of course, thought it looked too small. Christina selected the tree immediately and the young men trimmed the bottom and put it on the stand. Clever Christina had brought it with us. They also put the tree on the top of the car. Wonderful service.
I don't know what has happened to the price of trees but the cost seems less than in the past. I know that many people are using artificial trees so perhaps there is a glut on the market of live trees, making the prices low. When the tree came home and set in the corner, we three decided that we had selected the perfect tree for the space, all thanks to Christina and her measuring tape.
With such success with the tree, we decided to reward our behavior by eating lunch at our favorite Vietnamese restaurant. We enjoyed every bite.
