The Tree Farm!

We decided to cut our own tree down this year! We headed about 45 minutes northeast to Wintergreen Farms (thanks Colbergs for recommending this great place:)!

Rachel, Jeff and Preston, loaded up on the hay ride, hot chocolate in hand!

Preston and Heather snuggled up:)



The hay ride took us out to the tree farm where we started hunting for the perfect tree!




Hunting...






Hunting...





We found it!



Jeff and Preston start to saw.





Rach is checking it out!

She wants to try :)



Here it goes...

Good thing we have two strong guys to carry it to the road!


and a strong girl!




Preston and Jeff tie it to the car. If you know Jeff, that tree's not going anywhere!!!!


Rachel entertains herself with a stick while the boys tie the tree to the roof:)


We get to watch the sun set on the Drive home. What a great day!
