Christmas Trees

Our family really enjoys having real Christmas trees. The last few years we've gone out and cut one. It's always a fun outing. This year, the weather was too cold until a week before Christmas. Finally it was only 15 below so we could go out and enjoy the forest. We had a good time looking around and choosing a tree that would fit in our house. Alaskan trees are actually a little sparse looking, but we don't mind. That way you can see the ornaments really well.

Here are Ryan and the kids by the tree we chose.


Ryan tied the tree to the Jeep, even though it looks like I'm taking credit.

We let the kids get a little tree to put in their room this year. They had SOOO much fun with this. They decorated it all themselves, except for the lights. They watered it and took care of it. I think this may become a tradition.
