Every year on the Friday after Thanksgiving, we go to our cabin and hunt for our Christmas tree. It's always a surprise to see how much snow we have to hike through and you never know how long you'll have to hike for the perfect tree. I always want the first tree I see and Justin always wants to keep looking. Kate was tired from a night of no sleep so she fell asleep in the kid carrier and missed the whole thing. We ended up with the biggest tree we've ever had. I spent a lot of time getting the lights on and got to the end and realized I put them on backwards and couldn't plug them in!! So...I put lights on twice. The finished tree turned out great and Kate kept saying "Wow!" She liked the lights and decorations. Can't wait for Chirstmas!!
Before Kate fell asleep, she liked to taste the snow!

I love that you guys go find and cut your own tree. What a fun tradition.
Looks BOOTIFUL! That is a fabulous tradition! I can't wait to come see it!
Well, it does look like a perfect tree. I think that is an awesome tradition. It looks like Kate is looking forward to Christmas. :)
