O' Christmas Tree!

We started a new tradition this year. It is something that we have thought about doing in years past. This year we made it a reality. The day after Thanksgiving we took mom and dad and headed up to Boone to find and cut our own Christmas tree. We have been talking about it with Jack and he was so excited with anticipation. The night before we went we showed him the first few minutes of National Lampoons Christmas vacation where they go cut their own tree. Hilarious! Anyway, we found a nice little tree farm with some beautiful Frasier furs. We borrowed a saw, trekked up the muddy hill, and found "the one".  Its beautiful and full, fitting the room perfectly! They helped us strap it to the top of the car and off we went. It was a fun and special day spent with family!

Searching for that perfect tree

Gotta make sure its not too tall

This one is probably too short, Jackson!
 

Emily even enjoyed it!

Happy Holidays, everyone!!
