The Annual Jones Family Christmas Tree Farm Trip / Christmas Lights
The first year Emma and Killian took a trip to Storybrooke's Christmas Tree Farm, she had to explain to him why they were cutting a tree.
Henry was full of joy as he chose just the right one.
Emma was thrilled to have the experience that she never had growing up.
It was just the tonic they all needed after their experiences as Dark Ones. The house Killian had chosen for them looked delightful, all dressed up for Christmas, and the tree they'd chosen at the farm had been perfect too.

Ten years later, there was a new baby in the Jones household.
Henry lived in the Enchanted Forest with his own family, but each year they visited Storybrooke to help his parents choose their tree.
As Emma's trusty yellow bug had finally packed it in, so Killian had bought his wife a new car. This time it was red, her favorite color.
Lucy Mills took on the role of the excited child running around the farm looking for this year's perfect tree, followed closely by her mum Jacinda, her dad, and Grandad Killian, who were singing Christmas songs at the top of their voices.
Emma carried her daughter, Hope, in her arms, who giggled delightfully at her older brother's and dad's antics.
The Jones family said a fond farewell to the Mills family then Emma and Hope used their joint magic to lift the tree on top of the red bug.
Emma, Killian, and Hope drove home where they put the tree into their home once again.
Once the tree had been decorated and the lights put up outside their house, they made their way to Granny's to share a festive drink with her parents and younger brother.
“Are you feeling festive now, my love?” Killian asked his wife.
Emma kissed Killian under the mistletoe Granny had hung up. “I am now.”
