Tree Farm!

On Monday, Richard and I went to a Christmas tree farm to pick out our first Christmas tree! Neither one of us had ever cut down our own tree before (maybe because we grew up in AZ). It was a really neat experience! The farm was HUGE! You can kind of see how big it was in the picture below, but that was not even half of it.

There were 5 different kinds of trees growing on the farm. We liked the Douglas Firs and the Noble Firs the best, but it was so hard to pick!

We ended up picking out a Douglas Fir that happened to be at the very back of the farm. Here is Richard cutting it down with a saw, we had to carry it back up to the barn in the freezing cold rain. It was a great experience and a wonderful new memory that we have together!
