Our First Live Christmas Tree


Especially since we weren't joining family this year for Christmas, Brian and I decided we had to make it extra special. We thought cutting our own Christmas tree would be a fun way to start the season. 

Into the tree field...

You can't tell from this picture, but Ivy woke up this day with a bit of a cold. Therefore, ruther grumpy. And it was windy. Toddlers and cold wind don't mix, my friends.  

A word of advice when going to cut your own: bring your own saw! These saws couldn't cut butter.

Cameron having a go.

There's a good shot of our toothy first-grader! :)
The girls look so happy, don't they? 

And do you know what was extra cool? The tree we chose had a nest in its branches!

Love it! How fun that your tree came with an "ornament" already.
