Last year was our first year to go to the mountains and cut down a tree. Growing up I always said to myself that I was never going to have a "Charlie Brown Tree" ha ha ha. I remember when I was young and going to my neighbors house and they always had a charlie brown tree and I always made fun of it. Well now that we have started our tradition of going and cutting down our own tree I look back and think how funny I was. It is so fun to go up as a family and pick out a tree and cut it down although I did tell Brandon that I wished it could have been like on the movie Christmas Vacation when they go to find there tree and it is in the middle of the field with a beem of light shining on it. It is not like that at all its like going into the woods and spoting one tree that looks pretty and full and nice and then you cut it down and get it home and put it in your house and then you go oh that doesn't look as nice and full as it did in the mountains. Oh well I love our tree I loved going with Brandon and the kids and our little friend Coy and cutting down our Carlson Christmas Tree 2009. Yeah we had so much fun. First of all we started off the day by going to my grandmas house in Ashton and eating pizza then we got dressed up and headed for the mountains.
Here is Brandon with his axe ready to chop down a tree!!
Here is the kids hiking up the mountain.
There is the spot here are the kids Mya, Coy, Reece, and Peyton waiting for Brandon to get the tree chopped down.
Here is all of us by our chopped down christmas tree I think Brandon was a little pooped
This is Peyton after we got home from getting the tree he was a little tired from all that work...
While Peyton slept Mya and Reece sat and ate cinnomon rolls and drank hot chocolate.
Heres Me and Brandon putting the lights on the tree.
Every year I have made a tradition to buy the kids an ordiment and this is them putting all there ordiments on the tree. It was kind of hard getting the heavy ones to stay on.
and here is the finished product we had a lot of fun and I am glad it is done now lets start celebrating the Holliday season.
