tree hunting

For the past few years, we have talked about going up to the mountains and chopping down our own Christmas tree. But we never did it, until now...

We went with a friend on an amazingly beautiful day! I actually was scared their wouldn't be that much snow, but there was plenty!

Here are some of my favorite images of the day:





And then we found the perfect tree...



Which we spent last night decorating, singing Christmas carols, drinking eggnog, and hanging out as a family...



Now, I really feel the ho ho ho magic!
