Christmas tree hunting 2009

My family goes on an annual Christmas tree hunt (ok, and we eat a lot of good food, too) with our family friends, the Ellsworth and Zang families. We always go to get our trees the first Sunday in December, and lucky for us, my parents live next door to a Christmas tree farm! This is a family tradition that I could not wait to continue with Aiden. Next year he will be in Papa John's tractor with the big kids!

This year was Aiden's first christmas tree hunt, and it was also his first snowstorm! We bundled Aiden up so snug that he could barely move and headed out to find a tree. As we left the house it was snowing a few small flakes and by the time we left there was several inches of snow on the ground. It was so fun to go tree hunting in the snow and we found the perfect tree this year!

All bundled up!

Daddy cutting the tree down...even though he complains, I think he secretly loves doing this kind of stuff...ha ha!

All decorated and in the house!
