christmas tree hunting….

December 18, 2007
we finally got our christmas tree on sunday! not quite as planned (eric REALLY wanted to go into the mountains and cut one down, we even got the permit :( ) with the trip to cali being postponed, and getting sick last week, we took this opportunity to go with eric’s dad, and our niece, sam. it was duke’s birthday, too!
this tree farm is called “the tree wisemans” isn’t that too cute?
i have so many pictures, i just couldn’t leave any of these out.
and why should i?
so here goes:

Jme: Looks like so much fun! We didn't even get a tree this year. :( I couldn't find the motivation, so I'll just have to enjoy yours while we're up there. :)

Amy: gorgeous tree! i love tree hunting!!! great shots. please post pics of your tree when it's all decorated. i would love to see it.

The Christian's: What a beautiful place. I have never cut down a Christmas tree...it is something I would like to do though.
Great family picture!!!
