After driving all day Sat we turned around and drove an hour in the rain on Sunday to get our Christmas tree. We had to. J is having his big V this Friday so we can't do it this coming weekend. If we waited till next the kids and I would have one week to enjoy the tree before leaving for WV so it had to be yesterday!! So rain and all after our Sunday boot camp we headed out. We had the time of our life. It was like the best day ever. We arrive at Huber's and got all our warm stuff on. The girls and I have rain boots so they were perfect for the day. We loaded up onto the tractor and headed out to see the trees. We only say 2 other crazy fams out in the rain like us. It was kind of cold but super fun. We found a great tree, cut it down and then drug it back onto the tractor. J tied it to the roof and then we headed inside for some pizza and wine. There happened to be a group having a 60th bday party and a guy singing with his guitar so we joined right in on the dancing. We even got to play the hokey pokey and musical chairs. It was a blast. This is the second year in a row we have cut down our own Christmas tree. I love love love our holiday family traditions. Av was the only one that would go near Santa so she got her pic taken with him. E was way more into the tree than the camera so I could not get a cute one of the 3 of them and then he fell. Poor thing could barely move in the puffy jacket and the snow boots that were way too big for him.
