The first Saturday in December we headed off to Forest Creek Tree Farms in search of the perfect Christmas tree!
Justin got ready with measuring stick and saw in hand...
...and we headed out for our hunt!
Unfortunately, this is all we found! Nothing that looked like any type of Christmas Tree I'm used to seeing! 
Luckily, the farm had a lot on it too, so Ryan escorted us back to where the Christmas Trees really were! He didn't understand why we walked past them in the first place!
We searched long and hard and found the perfect one!!! (It really only took about 5 minutes.) 
Ryan got the tree wagon for us... 
...and Justin took the tree down and loaded it onto the wagon! No, he didn't need that saw after all! 
Three handsome boys!!! 
The boys were all treated with Candy Canes and enjoyed them in the trailer while we prepared to head home! 
The following evening we had a lot of fun decorating the Christmas Tree! There were ornaments on the lower 3 feet and it looked great! 
Austin loved that his ornament with Santa riding a Reindeer could touch the ground! That was just asking for the tree to be pulled over! 
After they were "nestled all snug in their beds," I fixed the Christmas Tree so it wouldn't fall on their heads! 
Our "stockings all hung by the chimney with care!" 
And our reminder of why we celebrate this time of year! 
As you can see, we are all ready for Christmas!!! The boys can't wait for Santa to come, and remind me often of why we celebrate this wonderful holiday! We are so grateful for the birth and life of our Savior Jesus Christ!!!
