M -m -m -m. I love the smell of fresh Christmas trees. It is already time to pick out our Christmas tree. Hi, my name is Cassandra. I am 29 years old now. My roommate and I are picking out the perfect Christmas tree for our apartment. My Christmas shopping is complete and the gifts are wrapped. All we need now is the tree. Look! There it is! I see the perfect tree! It is lovely and full and it stands nice and straight. When loaded up onto my little, red car, the spruce tree practically swallows it up! The fluffy, white snow really puts us in the mood for Christmas as we drive home. As we try to stuff the tree up the stairway to our apartment, we wonder if it grew on the way home. It sure didn't look this big when we picked it out at the nursery! After quite a struggle, and a great deal of laughter, we finally manage to get it set up.
