Tree hunt

We set out this morning to find the perfect tree. Sam was determined to find the BIGGEST, FATTEST tree he could find. After Ellen and Colin found their tree (in 5 minutes)... I spent the next 30 minutes roaming around trying to find our tree. The kids gave up and decided to "hunt for bears"...
Sam and Lizzie found this tree and thought it would be a perfect fit... YIKES!
The tree farm had this antique train that the kids loved. They climbed inside it and played with all of the gears and checked everything out. Ben was especially interested since he is our resident train guru.
Our best attempt at a family photo.
The boys and I decorated the tree after dinner tonight... Sam was so excited. He checked out each ornament and hung them all up. He wouldn't let Brian in the room until we were done. All of the lights had to be off and then he got to light up the tree and show everyone. He was a proud boy!
