Seilers Christmas Farm

O' Christmas Tree

 

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree!
How are thy leaves so verdant!
Not only in the summertime,
But even in winter is thy prime.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How are thy leaves so verdant!

 

 

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Much pleasure dost thou bring me!
For ev’ry year the Christmas tree,
Brings to us all both joy and glee.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Much pleasure dost thou bring me!

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How lovely are thy branches!
Not only green when summer's here
But in the coldest time of year.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How lovely are thy branches!

 

 

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How sturdy God hath made thee!
Thou bidds't us all place faithfully
Our trust in God, unchangingly!
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How sturdy God hath made thee!

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Thy candles shine out brightly!
Each bough doth hold its tiny light,
That makes each toy to sparkle bright.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Thy candles shine out brightly!

 

This year I hadn't seen any tree lots and so I thought let's try out a tree farm...
So we drove thirty miles out of town.

 

Al with the wagon, nope not that one.

Well this is kind of how it went,

up and down the rows.

We went to both sides at least three times.

 

 

Al was such a trooper and patient

while I almost had a breakdown

because I didn't think we would find our Tree...

Let's just say the pines on the trees are different

from the trees we've had in the past years.

I wanted a full tree and all the trees looked a bit bare in areas.

 

 

Finally found the one...

Call me crazy for wearing a light turtleneck

but it felt wrong to go looking for a Tree in a T-shirt.

Yep, I felt like I was melting it was so HOT...

 

So happy to be going home with a tree.

 

Examing our Tree.

 

Sawing the Tree.

 

Got our Tree on the wagon.

 

All decorated and it's starting to feel like

CHRISTMAS.

 

Even have the stockings hung...
