Moving along to Christmas

Well maybe not Christmas but a Christmas tree!
Christmas sure is sneaking up on us this year.  I have not evan started shopping and there is like 12 days left.  Ugh, normally I have most of my shopping done before Thanksgiving.  Oh well, it will keep it exciting I guess!  
We did manage to get our Christmas tree last weekend. We have so many "choose & cut" tree farms in Sebastopol.  We forget that not everybody has them in their own backyard - one of those things we take for granted!  Anyway, we braved the crowds and headed out to a local farm.  We tromped around the place up and down so many rows of trees and then, like usual, we ended up picking a pre cut they trucked in from Oregon.  What can we say??, we like the Noble fir better than the Douglas.  Besides it's already cut so that makes it easy!

Here we are as our hunt begins….


 cuties!


and the winner!

It looks so cute all decorated in the house.  Now we just gotta get some gifts under it.  Get busy Santa!!

The tree is perfect! After all the mistletoe we cut out of the orchard, these boys can definitely use a hand saw!
We had so much fun 12-22-13 loading the T with all that mistletoe and by cutting it we are saving the apple trees!
It was a perfect day with excellent weather and we for sure got our exercise!
