tree time

Going to get our tree last weekend. We went to Jack's Creek Christmas Tree Farm again this year, and were very happy with it. They have several varieties to choose from, and they have a little petting zoo, a shop with a nice Santa Claus to visit, and a stand with boiled peanuts- YUM.


The kids love riding in the back of the truck while we wander about looking for which kind we want to get.


Maybe over there!




Lyle did not want to leave the truck though. He was tired and crabby (we have started to go without naps most days and he is still transitioning). Jason finally got him to come and be carried around, and he eventually got down.








I'm not sure what these were called, but we really liked the silvery color they have at the ends of the branches. The needles are very wispy looking too, which we liked. We were so excited to see some bright red berries growing on a vine in many of the trees- we picked a few to bring home and adorn our tree with.



Once we found "the ONE", Jason got busy cutting it down.


Daisy picked it right up and carried it to the truck (with a little help from her sisters) and then we were off for home.


More photos soon of the decorations at the house. Hope you are having a lovely December with not-too-much stress!
