For many years Mike, Bryan and I would cut down a fresh tree for Christmas.
I told Mike that it would be fun to take the grandkids and cut down a tree this year. Stacy thought it would be fun too. It was the first time for Stacy, Kory, Brian, and all the kids.
The weather was perfect for their first time. Mike and I would of preferred some snow. We schlepped down the rows and rows of trees.
The kids ran around and around all the trees. Stacy finally settled on this one. Mike found himself helping Kory who decided that next year he was bringing the chainsaw. No fun there!
Their tree was cut.
Mike found ours right away and we had marked it to come back too. In no time he (with help from Brian) had it sawed down.
They did have a wagon that took everybody out into the trees and back, but we decided to carry our purchase back to the building.
We ended with free apple cider and a doughnut. We think we have started a new family tradition. It was just as much fun as I remember.
