Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree...

We went and cut down our Christmas tree today. Usually I am a little early on the Christmas season. I like to start listening to Christmas music the day after Halloween and usually put up decorations the week before Thanksgiving! But, because of Carter's birthday we decided to wait. We found a cute little u-cut family tree farm and began our search. Because of our little house, little space and a 1 year old who is very curious, we found the perfect little tree just right for our house! Now...how do we keep curious little fingers away from the tree???
