Cutting down our Christmas Tree

Today we drove out to Patchen Christmas Tree Farm to cut down and bring home our very own Christmas tree. The nice men gave us a saw and we tromped around the hillside until we found the perfect tree, a Noble Fir that was almost 9 feet tall. Anthony yelled "timber" as Daddy cut it down and we hauled it off to the car. We did discover one slight problem when we got home, it was too tall for our living room! Fortunately Daddy had a saw and was able to trim the tree to fit.

I really liked Patchen. It was only a 30 minute drive from the house, they served hot cider and Santa Claus was even giving out candy canes.

The quote of the day came as we were looking at trees: "But I want a tree INSIDE the house like Claire and Robert!"
