Holiday Tidings

Hey friends! My sister and I are here today to share how we spent last weekend getting into the holiday spirit. You know, because it’s not officially the Christmas season until you go full on Christmas!

Number one on the to-do list, GET THE CHRISTMAS TREE!

Holiday Tidings

Since I’m an old pro about hunting down that special tree I got to lead the expedition for our happy Christmas tree. I was a bit worried at first that all the good ones were taken, but then I found the perfect one!

Baby P agreed, so we said Dad, CHOP IT DOWN!

But first we had to take a xmas tree self! (everyone does it)

Timber!

I could hardly get home fast enough once the tree was down to help decorate it with my family!

Before the decorating could begin though mom got us all in front of the camera for a family portrait. A special one at that because we all got to wear our Ugly Christmas Sweaters from our friends at BooHoo.com. (that’s right, they have sweaters for the whole family, even the dog!)

Although to be fair, I don’t think they are that ugly at all! Dad got to wear one that said “Chillin with my Snowmies”, Mom’s said “Santa! OMG Santa’s Coming, I know him, I know him” (can you guess that movie), Baby P was a little too small to fit into most of the sizes on their site but she didn’t want to be left out so she wore a 5 year old size that said “Merry Christmas Ya Filthy Animal”. And as you can see I wore a fun holiday sweater too!

The tree may have been trimmed, but Baby P and I weren’t ready to stop being Christmasy.

With maybe a few outtakes here and there! Yay for Christmas!

12 Days of Cheer! The Annual Christmas Tree Murder

The Annual Murdering of our Christmas Tree // Ammo the Dachshund

Every year I head off to the Tricolor Tree Farm to cut down murder my holiday tree.

After spending a good while looking for our unsuspecting tree victim we take the obligatory selfie with the “chosen one”.

All before chopping it down to bring into our home. It’s sort of a funny tradition if you really think about it, but my dad takes the tree murdering very seriously.

And before you know it, the deed is done, and our tree is ready to be carted off to its new home.

The friendly staff at Tricolor help to wrap up my tree, just incase there is any chance of it escaping on our way home.

And incase you’re feeling sad for our little Christmas tree friend. Don’t worry, I found him a nice spot in my living room, he has a fresh bowl of water and…..

Oh Christmas Tree….

I bet you guessed it…..it’s Christmas Tree Shopping time!

Last year I had to do my Christmas Tree Shopping in the rain.

Mostly because my parents waited too long to get a tree….and the last chance we had was during a rainstorm!

So this year we went shopping for a tree right away.

I had so many trees to choose from I didn’t know where to start!

Luckily this year we didn’t have rain….instead we had the frigid cold.

So cold, that I’m not really sure why my family insisted on taking like a bazillion pictures of all of us.

Yeah, I lost interest after about a minute. I mean wasn’t the purpose to get me a tree….so Santa has somewhere to put all my presents?

My parents took so many pictures in fact, that they made the camera die! So if you are wondering why there are no picture of me helping Dad cut down our Christmas tree….you can blame them.

Luckily though, when we got closer to the car, mom was able to grab her spare camera.

I helped Dad drag the tree to the Christmas Tree people!

And FINALLY my tree made it safe and sound into my car. And I made it safe and sound into my heated doggie seat!

Only 18 more days until Santa comes!
