Goin on a tree hunt

Matt and the girls at the 'head of the trail"
We literally had to go "over the river and through the woods" to find a tree. It was fun - and pretty cold too!
This is Colesy's pick.

And Shelby's.

The tops of the little trees covered with snow made cute little stars.

Here is Matt cutting down the tree. Okay, there was a guy there to cut for us. How about that?!


And he even drug it to the car for us. Off we go.
Every year, we try hard to not get a tree that is too big. We dont usually do so good! One year, we could barely get it in the back of the truck. Yikes! So this year, we tried really hard to find one that was big, but not too big.
We errored on the smaller side this year, but she was easy to reach the top and well, it is what it is. She is pretty, huh? Maybe someday I'll put the finished, decorated, picture on here too. We'll see.
