We went Christmas tree hunting with our dear friends the Kellers recently. We thought it would be fun to go together and at the same time, show them our newly purchased property. The kids piled on the snow machine sled that we hooked up to the four wheeler and Jane and I drove them down the 1/2 mile trail to the cabin. Everyone enjoyed hiking around in search of the perfect tree, and for the first time ever, we rested assured that the tree we chose and chopped down actually belonged to us and was ours for the taking. The guys didn't have to look over their shoulders while starting up the chainsaw. (If I knew how to really use this computer, I'd have a word to click, like "click here" which would take you my post from last year about bringing home the Christmas tree. Then that last sentence would make more sense...) We Love Ya, Kellers!!
Here's a picture of the finished product. But I know NOTHING about cameras and taking pictures. I really wanted a shot of the tree all lit up, but when I used the flash, it lit the room up so that one couldn't even see the lights on the tree. So I tried several different settings and this is the best I could do.

very nice tree maybe next Christmas our family s could go together to get them !!! We just can't wait to be up there with our family. What an awesome God we have and we are so excited to be able to live in the same state as family.
Such great pictures, and looks like it was so much fun. We tried to get photos when we chose our tree...practically running through the woods to use up the last 20 minutes of light. Then we put it up, enjoyed it, then took it down on Tuesday and Dad cut it in half and tied the top portion to the counselor's car where it rode to her house in Williams Lake. It is proudly decorated, again, in their living room!
