Hunting Christmas Trees

So we took the boys & Makenna on our annual hunt. We took them up in the wilderness in the cold snow to hunt the perfect new member of our family to join us for Christmas. And they had a blast!!

They have so much fun every year searching for the right Christmas Tree for Daddy to cut so we can bring it home and decorate it. I've been a little bahumbug this year about Christmas so we're just now getting our tree. We only had one minor set back...we forgot Mason's coat. But we had an extra one of Billy's coats. You'll have to see the pics, it's kinda funny!! lol

ENJOY!!

Kenna mostly loved the puppies more than anything!


The Girls!!


Yes, This is Mason all Cuddle in Daddy's Coat!





THE TREE
One thing about cutting your own tree is you have to look below the surface and see it's..."potential"!
I'll post the finished product once we get done decorating it. Billy's good at see things with great potential that may be rough around the edges when you first look at it. I think that's why he married me!! LOL

You guys are awesome. Where do you go to cut down your tree? I think it looks like a lot of work... especially when you have a pre-lit tree!! I love it though and wish I were that ambitious.

We went to Robinson Tree Farm up in Mountain Green. We like the whole going up into the mountain to cut your tree versus the tree farms in "farming land".

I love the picture of you and Kenna! It is so fun to see you with your girl. You need to hand the camera over a little more and get some mom and daughter pictures.

Your family is beautiful. What a fun activity to do together. I'm looking forward to the finished product so post it soon!

Nope I didn't make that one, I don't know what the deal is lately but there is some wierd crap going on with my family...annie included...she has changed alot in the past few months. I dunno, maybe I am just a jerk that they don't want to be around anymore??!? who knows! But no I didn't make that one but I bet I could...it doesn't look that hard.

I need to granny hook my butt off today cause I have 7 hats to make besides this one! lol But it is fun!! 10:00...be there or be square! lol

Your children are absolutely picture perfect. What an adorable family. I love the pics of McKenna! I have very beautiful babies, but I gotta say yours come pretty close to being as cute as mine :-)
