The Perfect Christmas Tree



I'll confess, my expectations for our second annual Christmas tree cutting adventure at Linvilla were pretty high since last year was so much fun.

About 15 minutes in, it wasn't shaping up to be quite the quality family outing I remembered.



But soon things started looking up. Kelly passed out and we found the perfect tree. In keeping with tradition, Daddy did all of the work while Shannon and I drank hot chocolate.







The hayride back was peaceful and sunny.



Shannon cracked us up when the wagon with the trees arrived. She literally was jumping and squealing with glee, "My Christmas tree here! My Christmas tree here!"



And here is today, all decked out.
