O Christmas Tree

Here's a picture of our tree and the girls. I went to a tree place and looked at a price tag. The first one I looked at... Well first some background. We just moved down from Michigan. Where trees grow on trees. Where I refused to pay more than like $25 for a tree. I would talk to people and ask if they knew anyone. I would drive down dirt roads looking for people selling them. The last couple of years I bought them from a really old guy who lived off in nowhereville. I'd always buy the ones that had been cut a few days so they were cheaper. So anyways back to the story...The first one I looked at had a price tag that said 155.00. I figured it was a mistake because I thought I'd seen some at Lowe's for 15.00. So I moved on to the next one. It was over 100 as well. The cheapest scraggly one I saw there was more than $60! So I went to Lowe's. The one I ended up buying was $40. Which seemed like a steal after the first place. Now that I think about it the first place was probably a front for Lowe's so that people wouldn't mind paying $40. You win this time Lowe's.
