So we did our almost annual "go to the woods and cut down a tree" event. It was drizzly, muddy, and the pot holes almost ate our big truck! We had a good time with friends trying to find a tree that wasn't too "Charlie Brown"-like. We brought home a lovely, fairly full noble. It smells fabulous. It would be decorated, too, if Hannah hadn't knocked it over and spilled about nine gallons of water out of the stand. While we wait for the carpet to completely dry, my living room is a little out of place. 
Seth kept getting caught in the blackberry brambles and we had to rescue him. He loved tromping around after his dad. They are great buddies!
The Christmas season has begun!

Yesterday I was putting my Christmas tree together a piece at a time and I was thinking how sad this is what my kids think of a christmas tree - going and picking one out in the snow is a much better memory. Way to go w/ the train memory too - your a good mom! I need to be better at the making memories thing.
One of these years we will join you for the great tree hunt! It sounds like lots of fun if you can handle the mess.
