It’s that time of year again when we go looking for our annual family Christmas tree. Last weekend we took a drive up north to pick out and cut down our family Christmas tree – a tradition we started last year. We decided to try a different farm this year since we weren’t overly happy about the prices of last year’s place and from friends’ recommendations decided to check out Battenfeld Tree Farm. A had so much fun running around the farm looking for a perfect tree and telling Daddy to cut it down. Santa & Mrs Claus showed up to take pictures with the kids and there was a sleigh ride complete with mini clydesdales pulling it. Throw in some hot cider, doughnuts and a big bonfire to sit by to keep warm and it made for a very cozy afternoon. Of course A wasn’t into Santa or the sleigh ride (just wanted to look from afar) but if you wanted, one could spend the entire day there.
Once we got the tree home A wanted to help us put it in the stand and then anxiously awaited me to put the lights on so that he could decorate. My little elf did a great job helping. Only two ornament casualties later….we have our fully decorated tree. All ready for the big guy to leave presents under!!
