Our Christmas Tree

Our tradition for the past 8 years has been to put the Christmas tree up the day after Thanksgiving. This is the second year in a row we had the opportunity to cut down our tree. A family in our ward was so sweet to offer to have members of the ward come pick out a tree and cut it down. The only thing missing is snow. It was a beautiful day, the kids got warm wearing their jackets

Once the tree is cut and loaded on top of the car, the real fun for the kids begin. They love pulling out their different ornaments we have made or collected through the years. It is fun just listening them reminisce. This holiday brings so much joy and makes tons of memories. Even Abby got into the spirit of decorating by playing with the lights. So cute!
