The Christmas Tree

Every year the Murphy's go to a tree farm and cut our own live tree for the holiday. This year we went to Meyer Tree Farm outside of Greenville. We usually go to Hubers but we thought we'd try something closer. This new farm was not the Huber's that we like. No hayride to the tree. No hot cider after. But it was closer and cheaper. We took our own cider and had a nice little hike out to find the perfect tree. It took us to the edge of the farm, but we found an acceptable tree. :)
Corbin had a ball just walking around in the tall grass. He was so funny. Falling down and getting up. 






































This always puts us in the mood for Christmas. We have cookies and listen to christmas music as we put our tree up. This also kicks off the decorating, cleaning, and cooking that gets us ready for our annual christmas party. More on that tomorrow...
