Oh Christmas Tree!

Ok, we finally got our christmas tree today, we have for every year we've been together, went out and cut our own christmas tree down at a local christmas tree farm in the area. Its only 5 mins from the house if that. A huge hill full of trees, we looked and looked, and every one Steve liked I found something wrong with, and poor Taylor just carried the stick around waiting for me to make a decision. You carry this long stick with you with a bright orange or red ribbon tied to the end, when you find the tree you like, you raise the stick beside the tree and wait.........the cutters will come find you in a 4 wheeler with a chainsaw and cut your tree down and bring it back down the hill for you to wrap and drill it for you. (In case those who never been to a tree farm, that's how it works) I took some photos while having fun today!

And did I mention it was COLD as crap ---laugh......about 35 degrees and windy, felt like 20 degrees out there.

Taylor was just picking at the branches trying to pass time.

Here we thought we had this tree already, the stick is raised and the posing was ready until I saw a new tree in the distance......and..................

Bingo! here is the tree we brought home instead. Laugh, I just couldn't make up our mind. And boy does that tree smell good in the house, we have the lights on it right now, that's it. So, probably sometime Monday evening when we're all together again, we'll finish decorating the tree..........what fun!
