The Great Tree Hunt

One of our family traditions is to go to a Christmas Tree Farm and cut down our own tree. This year it was fun to take Amy's family with us. (Mom and Dad left this morning for Iowa) Nate came along too. We've been out there in all sorts of weather. This year it was pretty cold (30's) but dry. The picture in the lower right corner is Tony as he gets the tree measured. It was 7 feet tall. Madison, Quinn and Nate actually worked and worked at it and this was the first year that they actually got it cut down all by themselves. All 3 of them were under the tree at the end, trying to get a good push/pull action on the saw. TIMBER!
