Brian, Harper, my 2 brothers and I saw it fitting to cut down our own tree this year and hopefully it is the start of an age old tradition we hope to keep alive within our little family. There is something magical about searching through a foggy pine forrest for the perfect tree to call your own.

I can say it was not the easiest decision with 4 adults and their conflicting opinions on just what constitutes the perfect live Christmas tree, but ultimately, as the matriarch of the group I had the final say (but of course) :D

This was Harper's 1st time trekking through the pines and she seemed right at home tromping around, smelling and taste testing (yes) everything in sight. My daughter is fearless. I love that about her.

Welcome little tree. Welcome Christmas.

not ready to leave yet!
