Oh Christmas Tree!

Yes, I do realize it is January 1st, 2010 but I can't not post all of our Winter Vacation adventures. As you read along you will realize why these are getting posted now instead of earlier!

The past few years we have been going to a great U-Cut tree farm right down the road from where we live. We love the prices ($15!) and the trees are amazing! My mom is even in love witht his place- she and Dave went and cut a tree down for her house and even managed to shove it into her little car for the ride home to Everett! The big news this year was that the girls got to have a Christmas tree in each of their rooms! The weather was cold, wet and windy when we went to pick out the trees and so they both picked out their trees very quickly and then headed back to the car while Dave and I looked for our tree! The girls loved decorating their trees and had fun all of December with them.

One of my favorites...carrying her own tree!

Maddie's tree!

"Our tree"~ The girls were already in the car so we didn't get a family photo but I love this one because it is so rare that we have our picture taken with just the two of us!

Taylor's tree all decorated! She spent almost 2 hours hanging her ornaments (she had to put string on some of them first).

Ta-Da! Maddie was so proud of her ornaments! She is standing in front of most of them as she sat on her rocking chair the whole time and put them all in one area! Love it!
