Oh, Christmas Tree
Blogger is being extra dumb today, so I hope this works. We decided to wait until Grandma came to get a Christmas tree. We didn't get one until the 7th of December! It took all my will power to wait that long, but it was worth it! We went in the middle of the day on Wednesday and realized that many Christmas tree lots weren't open. But it worked out to our advantage! We found a "cut your own Christmas tree" place, a town over. It was perfect! They had a forest of Christmas trees to choose from so we walked around trying to choose the best one for us. Then Tony and the kids cut it down :). After they had a little building that we could wait in while they shook and bundled our tree (they even tied it down to the top of the van!). Inside there was hot chocolate, candy canes, and a cozy fire. It was awesome!! And so fun!

You know all those pictures look sunshiny. No one will ever know how frozen we all were! What a fun fun fun day. And your beautiful 'white pine' Christmas tree, was just so pretty. AND Fox loved petting it and stealing the ornaments, and walking around, and around, and around it!! :)
After reading about all the fun things you've been able to do in IA, I'm about ready to move out there! I've never been able to cut down my own Christmas tree! How cool is that?! Great memories for your kids <3
