Getting the Christmas Tree

Our house all aglow!
Our beautiful Christmas Tree!


Samo and Brandy
We went up to our usual spot between Pine Valley and Pinto to get our Christmas tree. The Saaralainen Family and Brandy joined us. The weather was cold and we found a little snow on the North side of the mountain. It took a little while to find just the right tree but we finally found a winner! It was decorated with beautiful pine cones that looked just like ornaments. Very lovely.
We enjoyed hot cocoa and munched on peanut butter bars and chips and dip. A great family traditon!

It is the prettiest tree we've ever gotten up there. It didn't even need any grafting of limbs. It was so nice to have Lindsey back home to help with the decorating. Dan did a great job with the outside, too. It is beginning to look like Christmas!

That ribbon at the top has a rather ghostly image though.
