Last Monday Josh, Payt and I went with some friends and cut down a tree. We drove about an hour and a half, but it didn't seem that long. We got the three boys into the car and our friend pulled his trailer so we could put our trees in once we got them. We had a really fun time. The boys really enjoyed running all around. It wasn't too cold at first, but it got cold in the shade after we were there for over 30 minutes. We were both able to find our favorite out of all the trees. We got to have some hot apple cider and enjoyed that. Over all we had a really good day!
Payt, Austin and Ryan
Our cute little family. Don't mind Austin on the side of Josh!
The owner was way nice. He let the little boys and Josh ride in the wagon out to the trees. The little boys really thought that was a lot of fun.
Payt was on the hunt for the best, and biggest tree he could find for our home.
After a while the hunt wasn't so fun, he was cold and didn't want to walk anymore.
THERE IT IS!!!!
THE BEST AND THE BIGGEST TREE EVER!
Payt got a second wind and figured out if he wore his hood and put his hands in his pockets he would be ok.
Our tress and the boys all done and ready to go back to the car.
The owner like I said was way nice. He cut little pieces for the kids and gave it to them so they could have their own christmas tress in their rooms if they wanted to. Payt thought it was pretty cool.
Our GIANT tree! Let me just say when Josh brought it in the house I thought what the heck did we buy. The tree is about 14 feet tall. I had to cut all around it just so the branches wouldn't hit the couch. We had to use our friends ladder so Josh could get the lights, star, and ornaments on at the top.
Our funny GIANT tree once it is all decked out. You can laugh if you want. My feelings wont be hurt. Its definitely not my favorite of all the trees we have had, but it has grown on me and has lots of character.
