A Christmas Tree Story

This is a story about the Voss Family getting a Christmas tree for the Christmas season.

A week ago, the Voss family left early in the morning for Flagstaff to cut down a beautiful tree.

The family decided to feed some deer and have a picnic before cutting down their beautiful tree.




After the picnic, the family finished their travels to sunny, yet cold, Flagstaff to cut down a tree.

The family had a difficult time picking a tree that all would agree on.
"That tree is too tall," said the daddy.
"That tree is too ugly," said the LuLu.
"That tree is too bare at the top," said the mommy.
"I am too busy picking up sticks, pinecones, golf balls, twirling, to notice the trees," said the MyMy. (She really didn't say that because she was too busy picking up sticks, pinecones, golf balls, twirling, etc.)

Gloves were placed on trees that were possible candidates.




Finally, after some soul searching, compromising, and bargaining...... the perfect Christmas tree was found. Yea! Daddy got to use a very cool power tool to cut the tree down.




The family then loaded up the truck, shopped for coats, had some pizza, and headed for home.

A week later, the family finally had time to decorate the beautiful Christmas tree.



And, to them, it is a beautiful Christmas tree, and so are the memories.

The End
