Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree

.
We braved the chilly temps, the bumpity wagon and the deep snow and headed out to the tree farm last weekend to find the perfect tree (funny, how everyone else was there searching for the same thing!) After treking through acres of snow, heading cross country to the back corner of the lot through knee deep snow.....we found the PERFECT tree.....can you guess where it was? By the road where the tractor had dropped us off in the first place!!! Oh well, it isn't Christmas unless your toes become frost bitten while tree hunting (at least that is the way it was in my house growing up.....and we didn't have tree farms either.....just lots of bush to tromp through). In keeping with another new tradition, Alec felled our tree just like a regular Paul Bunyon and after a quick drag we were on the tractor headed back to our warm van!! Enjoy the pics from our fun afternoon.


Guarding OUR tree that we found!



Alec has perfected the chopping of the tree!



What do do while we are waiting for the tree to fall? Snow angels of course!

Another little frosty..........



The tree is finished and we have our own Christmas angel!!
