Christmas Tree Hunting & Decorating

Ok I'm a few weeks behind - not anything out of the ordinary! A few weekends ago we packed up the kids and went Christmas Tree Hunting. Addi was traveling with my dad coming back from Arizona so she didn't get to go with us for the actual Tree Hunt. So we packed up Kaylee and brought her with us as well! The girls had fun playing in the snow and pointing at the gigantic trees everywhere - deciding which one would look good in our house. We finally found one that was bare at the bottom but really full at the top so Jake chopped it down and just cut off the top. (We later realized it wasn't as full as we thought....) After we cut the tree down we headed to pick up Addi, drop off Kaylee and head home to decorate. We got all of the Christmas ornaments out turned up the Christmas music and the kids had a blast decorating the tree. They did a great job I didn't help much just filled in the gaps way up top because they couldn't reach. Lauren & Beau came over and helped us which was a lot of fun the guys went outside and put up the lights on the outside (which was pretty amusing). It was warm enough we were outside on the porch swing watching them put up the lights - didn't really feel like Christmas since there was no snow thankfully it snowed later that week!
