Christmas tree hunt 2009

We hunted for our Christmas tree the Sunday after Thanksgiving.
John had fun touching all the trees-- swiping at them with his mittens. All of the cousins were there, searching for their own perfect tree. Some families prefer the longer needle, and some like the shorter needle trees.

John's thinking, "Hmmm... that's a little tree."
The older kids call these "Charlie Brown's tree"

A quick photo taken in the midst of our search.

After we decided on our tree and cut it down, we took a ride in this John Deere Gator to haul our tree back to our car.

The tree was tied up, all ready to go.

One of the perks of this Christmas Tree Farm is the free hot chocolate and candy canes afterwards. Brielle enjoyed her first candy cane. For a little while, at least. She was finished with it about half way through, it was "too minty."
