early.\u00a0 We went to Back Achers Christmas Tree Farm in Raleigh on Sunday and picked out a very nice leyland cypress for this year.\u00a0 We tried a cypress last year and was so pleased with it that we decided to try that type again this year.\u00a0 Adela was a little bit cranky (since the Christmas Tree selection conflicted with her lunchtime), however she really enjoyed seeing the turkeys they had at the farm.\u00a0 Boo and Baa also went with us and helped pick out the tree.<\/p>\n<p>We brought the tree in on Sunday night, put the lights on Monday night, and put the ornaments on Tuesday night.\u00a0 However, Adela seems to like the silver garland most of all.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-357 gallery-columns-4 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure
