O Christmas Tree!

The weekend after Thanksgiving we made our 3rd annual trip to Young's to cut our Christmas tree. We love the tree farm at Young's; it is such a great way to start the holiday season! After Jack road around in the sled and we found the (not so perfect) tree, we returned to their barn where there is popcorn and hot chocolate and lots of friendly people who take your tree from you and fix/wrap it up. They shook the needles off, drilled a hole for the treestand, and even tied it to the top of our car!





Jack didn't seem too thrilled with the sled ride...

...but he did seem to like the trees (or maybe it was the tree saw that he liked.)
Either way, we had a great time, but our tree still isn't decorated. Thats right...we have had a bare tree in our living room for going on two weeks now. I'm starting to learn - that is life with an 8 month old. Things get done - slowly - if at all. Don't get me wrong, Jack is more fun by the minute, but I'm starting to dread the state of our household when there are TWO!

You guys are so wholesome. We got our tree from a parking lot.

Sigh. I'm starting to think the next post will be when Jack goes off to kindergarten...

Just kidding! I know you guys are busy, but don't you know we are dying to see pics of our favorite little sumo wrestler???
