Early Saturday morning, okay so not so early, it was around 9:30 we headed off for our 28.5 mile trek to a christmas tree farm that we had never been to. Isaah has been wanting to cut our own Christmas tree all season. So we went over the river and through the woods and finally found the farm. What a fun time we had. Not only did we get to spend our time together as a family sizing up and down christmas trees but we brought home a tree we all agreed on. You may not think that is a big deal but remember there are 6 of us and Some of us have some strong personalities. Our whole family loved this Christmas tree farm and all want to go back.


Madi had to be the photographer for a few shots and this was one that I thought turned out pretty good.




This was our choice, finally.









This is the wagon that took us to the tree field to pick out our own tree to cut down. After we cut the tree it pulls the tree and us back to the main area were we were able to go through a little petting zoo and see some exotic birds that talked back to us. We also got to see a special someone. Though it all can't be fun, we do have to have a little melt down here and there.

The gang by Santa. Madi hasn't been this close to Santa in years. She has a fear of Santa. Paige told Santa she wanted something she already has and Talli wouldn't talk to him, I had to tell him for her.
