👋 Hey there, Mike here.

I hope your weekend was fab. This weekend, we chose our Christmas tree. It's our first year having a real tree as a family, and the boys loved being able to pick it themselves.

Enjoy 1 short story, 2 incredible examples, 1 great video.

Before we begin... I want to draw your attention to:

1 short story that makes you think.

Christmas. I can't believe it's almost the festive season already. Whether you celebrate Christmas or not, it's the season to be merry.

We decided to bring the kids with us when looking for our Christmas tree. It took twice as long as it would have taken us to go alone, but everyone was happy with our chosen tree.

No complaints, no unhappy children. Just love.
