Last Saturday we bundled up and went to the Christmas tree farm to cut down our tree. This year we found out that some of our friends have a farm and were offering a great deal on trees so we took them up on their offer! We made an appointment Saturday morning, because it's not open to the public and we had the best Christmas tree hunting experience ever! As soon as we got there Grant took us around the whole farm on his quad. Andrew thought this was pretty exciting and was smiling the whole way. We told him what size we needed and he took us to a certain area. We found the tree with in minutes and he cut it down for us and hauled it back to the quad! We didn't even have to do any of the work....pretty sweet deal :) When he turned on the chain saw, Andrew got a little scared but was curious at the same time. I think he really enjoyed the whole Christmas tree farm experience, especially the "truck" ride (as he liked to call it. Unfortunately I didn't have time to decorate the tree that day so I finally got it done over a process of about 3 days (it was a very busy weekend!). Andrew has been very excited about all that is Christmas lately. He really likes all the decorations and especially the tree. He has taken many ornaments off the tree, tried to put some back on and broken some. We've had numerous amounts of time outs because of this and I'm hoping that next year this stage will be over. I do love that he is so excited about Christmas though and that he loves all the decorations just like me!
