To get ready for the holidays, we visited visited Nutbrown’s Christmas Tree Farm in Carnegie, PA. And we brought a friend! We partnered with Animal Friends to bring this adoptable cutie, Patriot. See our day below!

Paws and poms led the way on our search through the farm’s rows of fresh pine trees.

Patriot was just as excited as we were to be in the fresh air. Every brunette can use a blonde friend… but we all need a furry best friend! (psst… Patriot is THE sweetest and still up for adoption!)

Patriot had to head back to Animal Friends once we found our tree, but he brought his Pom-tastic Snood with him!
