Hunting for a Christmas Tree 12/3

Today we went to the Tree Farm to chop down our Christmas tree.  Usually, we go much later in the season, but they never seem to have really big trees by then, so we decided to go early.

Tractor ride to the trees.

Searching, searching

Wearing down

We found it!

Everybody gets a chance to help cut down the tree with a saw.

Victor starts and finishes cutting it down.

Then we were able to pay back friends for doing us a huge favor by letting all three spend the night so that Victor and I could go to a costume party.  We kept two of their kids for a couple of hours so they could spend some time together and get some Christmas shopping done.
