OUR FIRST REAL CHRISTMAS TREE!

Good morning guys. So I don't know as of right now if there will be a video up. I guess it would be yesterday or not. As we were exporting the video today something happened to iMovie and it just shut down and then all the video clips that were already done being edited and it was ready to export like disappeared and I have no idea where to find them. I've been looking for like two hours and I'm just about to pull my hair out so there might be a vlog and there might not be a vlog so we will see. But if anybody out there knows what the heck happened you know and has had this happen before and knows where these files go please let me know because this has happened before and it's the most frustrating thing in the world. But besides that I woke up this morning to the sound of my dog peeing on my carpet and I take him outside as I'm running him out the door and I get a huge splinter in my foot because we just have like wood plywood everywhere. So I get a sliver in my foot then I come in and I'm trying to look for our carpet cleaner. I find it and I accidentally knock it behind the dryer. I'm like oh my gosh. Then I finally get everything cleaned up. Simon, I'm just about asleep, Simon comes over to me and it's like mom I have to pee and then just pees his pants. So as you can imagine today did not start off on the right foot but we are going to make it a good day still because every time I start my day off bad it's so easy to think okay well this is just gonna be a crappy day but you get to decide if it's gonna be crappy or not. So I'm just gonna try to make this a good day and make the best of all of the other crap that's going on. I just hung up a mistletoe in hopes that Ashley will accidentally walk under it with me. Yeah? No? Good idea? I thought so. She's back here wrapping presents. This is in the dungeon. This is the dungeon of the present wrapping. I just wanted Ashley stuck in the closet. Is that a bag of Lay's chips that you're gonna wrap? Lay's chips? No, that's... Oh, that's dog food. Those are for Santa's treat to Raiden. Oh, I don't know if Raiden deserves anything today. Yeah, he should get a plump of coal. My neighbors came over and yelled at me, not my neighbors, but a lady walking her dog that lives four houses down. She explained to me for about a half hour on my porch about Raiden. Like, I came outside and she's like, I was just walking my dog and your dog was just following me and I mean he's not mean but he was following me and then this neighbor over here said that your dog's been eating their cat food and he's gonna call the pound and I'm like, oh. And then it's she just kept telling me, dude. She was so concerned so I think it's a good idea that we get a kennel for Raiden. Or a dog run, I mean. Right, babe? Yeah, a dog run. Ashley's so focused on this right now. You know what's annoying? They didn't make, they didn't have like one card thing for it was like gold or silver or white. They were all like bright colors. Ashley just told me the greatest idea in the whole world. This is my idea. I always want to know what they're going to open because I'm like paranoid they're gonna open like the best present first and then I'm gonna be all sad. This is genius. She's gonna write the present on the tag. That's such a good idea. Simon probably can't read. We got to a Christmas tree farm and smells so good. Oh my goodness. I think we already found the one. We are here to get two trees. We want one for the basement and look at that tiny Charlie Brown tree. And then we want one for outside under our little patio area. I'm so freaking excited. And these guys are just cold so they're crying a lot. Oh good, they have stands here. Perfect. You guys look how cute. These are my very favorite kind of trees. I love when you can see like spaces in between. So we're gonna get two of those. We got to make sure we don't get, that's kind of tall though. We'd have to chop that down a little bit but yay. Simon, which one do you want? This? That one? The one you're touching? Okay. Cohen, what are you doing? Playing drums? Well they're entertained. Let's go find one. Actually that one over there in the corner. The farthest one. The rinky dink. That's cute. Well which one would that be for? The corner? This one could fit in the house. Because our house, I can barely touch our ceiling in the basement right now. Yeah. That one's so cute. They're all like just, I want to take them all home. Is that possible? Can I take them all? There's a chainsaw! Go, go, run! Let's go over there and I'm gonna go on this side. We're gonna get a cute little family photo shoot in. I mean why not, right? We just picked them. Those are the ones. I'm so excited. Hey bud, which one's yours? Which one's yours? How awesome is this place you guys? We just bought the two trees and they're going on top of the Land Cruiser and I don't know how they're going up there but I'm sure I'll figure something out. And there's the stands. These are like the Charlie Brown trees that Ashley loves. Don't forget my Christmas lights. I feel like I should light those up while they're up there. Ashley wants me to put a wreath on the front of my car too. How did you know? That's what I was looking for. We've got to. One like that would be cool. Let's get these suckers up on the top. This is gonna look like the most Christmassy car ever. Should I stand them up in the air? Oh my gosh. Yeah so they blow right off. That's perfect. I feel like this car was literally made for these. I agree. You should just keep them up on there all year. They'll be really dead soon but look at that and then you gotta put your Christmas lights on like hello. Heck yeah. I think it's like 24 degrees outside right now guys. We're freezing. I can't feel my mouth or my face so I feel like I talk funny. You see that tree? Where should we put the tree? Where do you think would be a good place for it? Your room? You have a white tree in there. What about right here? Look. What about if we put it right by the TV right there in the corner? That's gonna be good huh? Yeah. I need a chocolate. You need chocolate? You sound like me. What kind of chocolate do you want? Do you know what they're called? What? They're called hugs. Wait so the letters say hugs? The letters say hugs yes. So I want one. So you want a hug? Aren't they good? Do you remember why they're called a hug? It's a kiss that's wrapped in a hug. It's hugged with white chocolate. They're the best things in the world huh? Oh are you gonna give me a hug for a hug? That's a good idea. Cohen what is that drawing of? Let me see. Let's show everybody what it is. This is Cohen's drawing of the Grinch's heart. This one he says is the Grinch's heart when it's two sizes too small and the rest of this is when it's two sizes too big huh? You did a good job. That looks so good honey. Holy cow. Yeah look how big that sucker is. Well that fits okay. Okay. Yeah we'll probably have to chop some off the top. What do you think? Oh shut up. Okay let's see. I like the bottom. The bottom already has a hole in it. Let's see. Oh it's like Christmas vacation status. No heck no. Well look it like stands itself up. It needs to be watered. It does can you believe it? Okay. Ta-da. Thomas that was the fastest tree we've ever put up because it required no assembly whatsoever. When you buy them it has a sign that says no assembly required. It should. Guys look how cute that looks. I don't even, it doesn't need anything on it but I'm gonna put some white lights on it. If you like families like business was trees. Oh my gosh. You just had a tree farm? Yeah. Shut up I knew you were gonna say that. Yes. We haven't really been able to enjoy our Christmas tree and it's December 7th now and normally I enjoy a Christmas tree for like five months in advance so I'm feeling very unfestive until right now. I'm very happy we have a tree that we can actually hang out around and it's not covered in plastic and crap so I'm excited to get this all decorated and I'm really just gonna put lights on it and we might hang like a few ornaments but I really just want like a basic tree down here. I think it's gonna be cute. Stop it. You were gonna use a kitchen knife? It's not. It's a barbecue knife. Oh my gosh. Did you just stab the ceiling? I don't know maybe. That looks like a good idea. You're just gonna whack at it? You know we should use that little tiny one and stick it somewhere. Should we really? That is like a Charlie Brown tree at it's finest. Let me see that. It's like a foot tall. Oh there we go guys. Should we put that there? Look at this little thing. Oh my gosh. Shut up. No way. We'll set it up there somehow. That's cute. Alright. No one knows. Maybe just take that nub off the top that has like one branch up there. Really? I feel like that makes it. No that looks so dumb. Thomas. No I'm not taking it. Just don't do this at home. Where else are you gonna do it? Outside? Shut up. That is so cute. Okay look at it guys. Okay guys we got the tree done. Look how cute. I just wanted it so simple and we just threw a couple Charlie Brown red ornaments on it. Um but we do have another one out there which you really can't see. It's next to the fireplace. I don't know maybe you can. And I'm not about to go outside and light it up because I want to see how cold it is out there. Let me see your phone. Yeah it's 14. 14! It's bitter and we have no insulation. Let me just remind you. It's so cold in our house. Well down here it's fine but upstairs it's very cold. So update. Upstairs tomorrow they're doing the sheetrock and then they can insulate and then we can do the floors and then cabinets can be installed. So this is gonna be like a bam bam bam thing now from now on right? I think we're going to call our appliance center and have them just bring our appliances like right now because I can't wait. And I want to make sure we get on a schedule because I would love this to be done before Christmas. We're cutting it very very close. But I think we're gonna call that a night. Love you guys. Thanks for watching. For hanging with us you know. We should always say that. Thanks for hanging with us. K. Dude for real. And I really tried for like multiple hours to update our vlog from today so that might be posted tomorrow if Thomas can figure out what the heck happened or we're gonna have a lost file forever. But we'll see you guys tomorrow. Bye.
