After a day confined to the house for football and food, we ventured out on Friday in search of our family Christmas tree. We went to a new place this year, Parry's Tree Farm in Forest Grove, which had a more natural forest feel with lots of older, larger trees. After 20 minutes of stomping around the tree farm, the luster was lost on Will. Soooo....after a quick trip to the little Parry's store (which had a train set that Will loved!), we rambled back to Hillsboro and bought a $15 9-foot Doug fir (aka Griswoldus Firus) from a dude down the street. Problem solved!
After getting the tree in the stand, we headed downtown with good friends Aaron, Tiffany, and Griffin to take in the Portland Tree Lighting Ceremony and basque in some holiday decor at the old Meier & Frank (now Macy's).
