This is the first year as a family we got to go pick out and cut down our own tree. The kids had so much fun searching for the perfect tree, which ended up being a 10' 8" monster! It was cheaper to find a big tree and cut it smaller than to find the right sized tree to begin with so that's what we did.
Both of the kids got to take a turn sawing the tree down with dad.
Ava wanted to help drag the tree to the car..
...but it was so heavy!!
Eating their cookies and candy cane treats.
We did it!
