O Christmas Tree!

This morning we bundled up in the 27 degree frost and wondered out to Thompson's Tree Farm outside of Brownsville. It was coooooold! We had originally planned that we would make the trip up in the snow to find the perfect tree, however daddy found a GREAT tree at 5500ft in August, which is impossible to get to right now. So mommy talked him out of going to a tree lot instead and into heading to a tree farm. It's hidden up Mt. Home Dr. off of Northern and has some great trees. And we thought they were VERY reasonable, $3.75 a foot for Noble firs.

After only 20 yards into the tree farm, mommy spotted one in the near distance and said "How about that one?" In which Daddy responded, "Which one?!?" Ya, I forgot there were only 100 other trees surrounding it. So we made quick work of the trip, which Lauren wasn't ready to leave! We came home with a great one....and once it's decorated after it THAWS, we'll post some pictures of it and you can be the judge!

Watching Mr. Thompson saw down our perfect tree.....daddy wished he could have chopped down his own.
