O' Christmas Tree
We had a tradition of going to Mt. Pleasant the Saturday following Thanksgiving to cut our own Christmas Tree. But due to slim pick'ens we started going to Ephraim to buy a tree. Circumstances beyond our control have not allowed us to own an artificial tree, due to the fact that it may lead to the ownership of a minivan!! When we moved up here we found out that we could get a permit for 10 bucks and cut our own tree. Until you see a minivan in our driveway, we will always have a real tree, it may not be pretty or full or even a pine tree, but at least it will be real. This has been a wonderful tradition and hope it keeps going. To everyone, including those with minivans, "Merry Christmas, We love you and you know we're just kidding!!"

I love your family picture in front of your beautiful tree. Merry Christmas from one of those darn Minivan owners.
What does owning a minivan have to do with artificial trees? Ever heard of UPS? I have an artificial tree and it rocks!!
Awesome Tree Guys. Looks like
it was a lot of fun picking it out and cutting it down. Merry Christmas, Todd
I do love real trees- we always had one growing up. However, I bought a fake tree the year we cut down a hideously gigantic tree in Mt. Pleasant and it fell over in the middle of the night, breaking ornaments and getting sap all over the carpet. We couldn't get it to stand again for anything. I've loved our fake tree, but miss the real tree smell. Plus, real trees give me hives. Looking forward to seeing you for Christmas!
Your tree looks great. It is so fun to go blogging and find people you know. Hello. Since we never talk to you. It is great to see your pics of your family. Congrats on #3 you will need to let us know when the big day is. Merry Christmas!!!!
I've been emasculated by a Minivan and a fake tree. Looks like and reminds me of so much fun. Lets look at that other sled when you come down next. :)
