Searching for the perfect Christmas tree

It was a beautiful sunny Sunday morning, much needed after all the rain we've been having and ideal for going to get our Christmas tree. We headed down the hill to Donovans Tree Farm to see what we could find.

Grandma K came along to hang out with Cole

while we searched for the perfect tree.

Cole seemed to enjoy the experience. Especially since he had Grandma and her long down coat to keep him warm!

None of the trees in the "u-cut" area really grabbed our attention so we decided to check out the ones that had been selected and cut by the tree farm staff. And there we found it. The perfect Christmas tree!

This year we (at this point, Cory would say "We? Do you have a mouse in your pocket?") Okay, I (Rebecca) decided to string popcorn for the tree, a tradition that I remember from my childhood. So I strung popcorn, with some help from my mom, and have started adding ornaments. And yes, there are already presents underneath! Not surprisingly, 99% of those are for Cole.
