Oh Christmas Tree

Just as we do every year, we headed to Panaca for Thanksgiving. Most of big B's family goes and it is great to see everyone and for the kids to play with so many cousins. One of our biggest family traditions is to go and find our Christmas tree in the wild and cut it down ourselves. Big B did this all growing up but for a city girl like me I love it and can't leave Panaca without doing it. (Big B could live without because it is a lot of work getting it all the way back home.)
Here is the man hard at work. Thanks to aunt K for helping us decide on which tree.
We spent a few days in Cedar and the kids favorite great aunt got them presents, C got tools. So naturally he had to help daddy with the hard work.

We missed the big tree hunt through the "wild" this year! We actually went to a pumpkin, I mean tree "patch" to get our tree, which looks nothing like a bush! Anyways, missed you guys and it seems like we never chat anymore. What else is new in your world? Give me a call sometime.

Great tree! WE are partial to the trees here in our mountains though. :) Hope your Christmas time is merry and bright. We love this time of year!
