A Griswold's Christmas

A Griswold's Christmas.......

Blake's good friend Brent

owns a nursery in Abilene with his dad and brother.

They have beautiful Christmas trees

and he was so kind to let us have one;

only thing was we had to get it from Abilene to Lubbock.

On a typical day,

that probably wouldn't have been such a challenge.

However,

on this particular West Texas day

the wind was blowing about 50mph

so driving on the highway with a Christmas tree

strapped to the top was a bit dangerous for all of the other people on the road

and it was destroying my once perfect tree.

So about 20 minutes outside of Abilene,

we pulled over a shoved the 8 foot tree

(sans a bag, net, etc)

into the Tahoe along with

me, BEG, Jill, RHETT and george henry;

talk about a tight fit!

Good thing we all have a sense of humor

because it was ridiculous.

And I am further thankful

the drive is only 2.5 hours!

Happy Holidays!
