It’s hard to believe, but Thanksgiving is over and the Christmas Season has officially begun!

Over the last couple of days, I have received some messages asking me where to go to find that perfect tree.  Well, ask and you shall receive!

As a fan of having a real Christmas tree, I love that I live here in the Capital Region as we have so many great tree farms!  These local places are so much more than tree farms though.  There are so many activities offered for kids, including Santa and even some reindeer!
