Slightly Altered Family Tradition

Every year, since Cameron was a baby, we would venture out the day after Thanksgiving to cut down the best, most perfect Christmas tree that we could find. We love this time that we have as a family making such an important decision. We did go out and get our tree as a family this year but, we ended up going the following weekend.

We shopped for our tree at Wahmhoff farms near Gobles. We drove around the fields until we found the perfect tree.
Triston and Tara both took a turn to try and cut the tree down but Terry ended up having to make the final cuts.
Cameron drug it back to the truck.
The boys loaded the tree and we headed back to the building to check on the horse drawn sleigh rides and to view the real live reindeer.
These reindeer don't look anything like the ones from the Rudolph cartoon. Hmm.
