getting our christmas tree

last weekend we headed up to the mountains with our friends, courtney and turner, to get our christmas tree! we all went together last year and continued the tradition this year. we heard about a little christmas tree farm nestled up in the north carolina mountains where you can cut down your own. we grabbed lunch and headed up there, and before we knew it we were on a tiny mountain road for what seemed like forever. we were convinced we had gotten lost or gone the wrong way, but eventually we landed at the farm.

this has become one of my favorite christmas traditions. i love mountain drives. throw in some christmas music and hot chocolate or cider and i am a happy girl. it's a great way to kick off the christmas season and really get in the holiday spirit. plus, there's not much better than a day with great friends!!

you can see last year's christmas tree adventure, here.

  3. This is so wonderful. I'm hoping that one year my husband and I can have an adventure of finding our own tree as well. And I love that maroon hat from the previous year. You, my friend, are a trend setter. xo.
