Oh Christmas Tree

Last weekend we headed up to Logan to hang out with Katie and Nate and their family. We slept over Friday night and Saturday morning we headed up to Preston to cut down Christmas trees with all of our fam. We hiked all over the mountain and headed home with 4 huge trees. The funny part is that while you are on the mountain the trees look tall, but not that tall. Then you get home and try to bring them into your house, and they are HUGE. We love this tradition!

Here we are with the tree we finally decided on:

(and yes, this tree is taking up at least half of our living room right now...)

This is cute Chel. So is your background. You should do my blog. I'm impressed your tree is up--mine is still laying on my back porch waiting for some magic elf to set it up for me...I guess I'll do it tonight.
