Cutting down the tree has become of our my favorite Christmas traditions. Matt's family always had a real tree and my family always had a fake tree. While I want to have a nice fake tree one day- when that day comes, we'll then just have two trees because this is too much fun to pass up!
There was a tree farm just 5 minutes from our house that takes you out on a wagon ride, you pick and cut your tree and then load it back up and take the ride back to your car. The boys loved the tractor/wagon ride and it really gets our family in the mood for Christmas.

Fun post Lori (you like awesome by the way). I can't believe how big (old) Taylor looks in those Santa pictures- amazing! Can't wait to see you all! xo
Lori! This looks like so much fun. I laughed out loud because I just got those exact. same. boots. Must be our minds thinking alike about these cold states we've moved to... I have never cut my own tree and would love to some day. Love the family picture at the end!
