Since we had no weddings this past weekend, I thought I would share some personal images for a change. I am thankful our kids Rochelle and Ezra are old enough to really get into the holiday spirit. Christmas is my favorite holiday and I might be known to go a little overboard with decorating at that time of year. Now at least I have a great helper with Rochelle who loves to decorate as well. This year’s challenge was to find a local tree farm to pick our tree with the kids.
Here is the story in photographs:







Rochelle tried finding the biggest tree but it was a little sad looking

James has an audience!




Time for cookies and hot cocoa before the tractor ride.






It was a pleasant afternoon and I higly recommend taking time with loved ones to do fun trips like this. If you find yourself in the need for a live tree next be sure to check out For Ever Green Tree Farm.
So fun! I might have to look for a tree farm next year. I’ve never cut down a live tree before but it looks like a great family tradition!
Rochelle is too cute!
If you put that front flap down on Ezra’s hat, is he completely enclosed? Too cute.
This looks like so much fun…I love Ezra’s little Coat and hat, too!
Thanks for sharing!!
Cutting the tree was very easy, at least according to James and it sure looked like it. We certainly hope to keep up this tradition.
The hat flap does not come or I would have tried Brian! That hat and coat are some of my favorite items on him.
Very good blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers? I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m a little lost on everything. Would you suggest starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that I’m completely overwhelmed .. Any ideas? Appreciate it!
