Christmas Tree Cutting

We headed up to the mountains this weekend to cut down our Christmas tree!  We haven't had a real tree for a few years so we were really excited!


Will wore his big boy coat.


We hiked in about a half-mile, checking out all the potential trees on the way in.  We wanted a big tree.


The trees weren't very full, but plenty tall.


We settled on one.


Grant chopped it down.   Will cried.  A true environmentalist :)


We tied it to the trailer.


And drove that puppy home.  On the hour-drive home, we couldn't help but check out other people's Christmas trees tied to their cars.  They all looked fuller and prettier than ours and we wondered if we would still like our tall skinny tree when we got home. (I guess the trees are always greener on someone else's car...)


But we got home.  And our tree is THE BEST!  Pictures coming soon.
