Day 354 of Firsts: Cut Down a Christmas Tree

Suburbia is where the developer bulldozes out the trees, then names the streets after them.  ~Bill Vaughn

Initially I thought this was a great idea. Now I kind of feel bad about cutting down a tree. I do. I just never cut down a tree before.

My husband usually buys a tree every year. I usually have little to do with it. This year I compelled him to do the "cut your own" as a first.  He handed me the saw.  It seemed like a good idea.

Now I'm thinking, why do people call it a "live"tree.  Hmmm.  Next year maybe it's time to for a fake tree.  Just a thought.
