Yesterday we went to get our Christmas tree. I was able to talk John into cutting one down ourselves. It's the first time we have ever done that but my parents used to take us when we were little and it's one of my best memories. It's a tradition I wanted to start. We woke up to snow and it continued to snow so it was a perfect day. We bundled up and took off. When we got there I think John and I both had a quick "oh no" feeling. We by far had the youngest kids out there. It was a little "aggressive" as John put it. Maybe we were in a little over our heads with our bunch but we forged on and it turned out great. We picked out the perfect tree and John cut it down!! As I dragged the girls and carried Everett back to the tractor John had the tree. It was pretty darn cold by then and everyone else out there must have agreed bc there were a lot more people waiting for the tractor than should have fit. All with trees. We all squeezed on though and had a fun cozy less windy ride back. After that the kids and I went into the little shop for hot apple cider while John put the tree on the car. Santa was roaming around and as much as Av loved seeing Santa, Camille hated seeing Santa. She was pretty scared of him. After the cider we met John in the restaurant for pizza for all and wine for mom and dad. Somebody was in there singing and playing the guitar which Camille loved to dance to. Camille didn't want any pics of her taken yesterday as you can see. It was still a great day!!
