December 3, 2011

We did something today that I had never done before... chop down our own Christmas tree!  So cool.  There was a tree farm just 10 minutes from our house.  Kris had done this before and was really excited for us to do this.  I, as usual, was the one dragging my feet.  We had thrown away out 3 ft three that we got our first Christmas (trust me it had reached the end of it's life.) and decided to get a live tree.  I kept having images of it going up in flames because of the lights.  Anyways,... The kids were such great helpers finding the perfect tree.


Izy was guarding this tree in case we decided to get this one.
Jessica was really into getting a tree, so much so that it wore her out and she slept through the whole thing.



Here is the winning tree.



This thing was so cool it shook the tree quickly to get all of the needles and anything extra off of the tree.  I was secretly SO thankful for this machine.  I mean come on, who knows what kind of bugs and critters I could be bringing into my house. :)

Kaylie was trying to figure out what in the world was happening to our tree.



Merry Christmas!!
