Tree Hunt

On Sunday, we took advantage of the great weather and headed out to our favorite Christmas tree farm, Rettig Tree Farm, to tag our Christmas tree. We had nearly 70 degree weather so it was the perfect day to go tromping around acres and acres of pine trees trying to find the perfect one to grace our living room for a month.

Last year Kade didn't really get to partake in the tree selection process. He spent the entire time asleep in the Baby Bjorn. So this year Camden showed him how it works.

Just like last year, Camden still prefers the tiny trees. We had to steer her towards the bigger ones.

But not THIS big!

Kade seemed to be more interested in playing with sticks than anything else.

Still looking for the perfect tree.

And some time out for a little fun.
We finally found the *perfect* tree. Camden made sure everyone knew it was ours. She marked our tag by drawing a pirate on the back.

Daddy wrote our name and phone number on the front, just in case the pirate picture didn't make it obvious who the tree belongs to.

Here is Daddy and the kids with the winning tree.
