Christmas Tree Cutting


A little over a week ago, we made our annual trek up into the mountains to cut our Family Christmas Tree. The Meyers (less Megan and a sick lil' Brogan) and The Mays joined us on a beautiful wintry day in Colorado. There was just enough snow that all the kiddos got tired and had to be sledded or carried back to the parking area, but not quite enough to actually make a snowman or even a decent snowball.


We started off the morning snapping the usual pictures with Smokey Bear, before heading out to secure the most perfect tree in the National Forest. About an hour later, we had our tree. Grant even helped pick it out.

After some much needed rest (after hauling the tree, the saw and the Grantster back out to dry land), we all ate lunch and sang songs. Okay, I made that part up about singing songs, but we did have a really fun time with our friends. Christmas truly is the most magical time of the year.
