We are off to find our family Christmas Tree........
(We actually got our tree the Saturday after Thanksgiving... I'm still behind!)
So many to choose from....
Through the thick of the forest......

Even baby Asher thought our adventure was fun!!
Hayden marking our tree with the flag!
Finally, our tree was chosen....... from the clearance section!! ;)
You have to save money somehow these days.......
It has a bad spot but we got it cut to our specifications! They cut it right where that red line is and it ended up perfect! Best part of all...... we saved some money!
While we were waiting for our tree to be cut, the kids enjoyed the free popcorn and hot chocolate! (all except for Asher who was asleep by now) We also met this family whose 4 kids were nearing or in their college years. The awesome thing was that they were still coming together to cut down their tree! It was neat to see a family who still enjoyed being together! The mom reminded me about how fast they grow up and how much she enjoyed being a mom! I pray our family is still that close in 15 years!

It looks like you got a really great deal. It must have been nice to see a family like that. I hope that all of our families will stay close like that. Big families are very special. I can't wait to have more :)
What a great tree you got! I love finding deals like that, especially when funds are tight (like they always are!!). Good for you. :)
