Today we cut down our first ever Christmas tree. It’s actually way easier and fun-er than it should be… for the cost of a $5 permit, you’re off Christmas Tree Hunting.
There was lots to choose from out Hwy 68, but the trick was finding one small enough to cut & fit, without looking too Charlie Brown.
After some wandering we finally decided on one, and Ashley was the first to demonstrate her fervent woodsmanship.
I took over, and in no time the tree was ours.
It seemed all too easy and enjoyable, so we decided to buy a tree-stand and lights at Wal-mart, just to kill the buzz a little.
Now after a busy week, it feels a little more festive.



I'm somewhat confused by your choice of tree-chopping tools, but glad to hear you got the job done mini-axe notwithstanding!
