It is our family tradition on the day before Thanksgiving to head out to a big breakfast at Atlanta’s downtown restaurant, American Roadhouse. After having our fill, we then venture over to our nearest Home Depot and begin the “quick” search for our “perfect” tree.
As we enjoy our breakfast, we reminisce over the past year, laughing at our mishaps and marvel at God’s provisions.
Once we begin the search for our tree, we joke about how long it will take. We then find a pretty good tree within the first few picks and look at each other in disbelief. But of course, my husband will not stand for anything less or so quick of a pick. It must be an adventure! So off we go – to pull out, cut, shake, twist an turn at least ten more trees. One to two hours later, we’re off to decorate and move furniture to fit our massive tree in our living room and prepare for Thanksgiving.
