Christmas Tree 2012 

 Owen and Olivia all bundled up, ready

to find the perfect tree, but

unfortunately NO snow!

 We get a permit from the Forest Service

and have made it a tradition to go up

to Idaho City and get our Christmas Tree.

The permits are only $10.00.  You can't

beat that!  We get two permits so that the

kids can have their own tree upstairs and

decorate with colorful lights and all

their ornaments that have collected over

the years!  It is such a fun day as a family!

 Think we found one of them!

 Taking a break!

 Cutting down the tree!

 Packing out the trees!

 The kids tree!  It probably doesn't

look that great, but this is probably one

of the most perfect trees that we have found!

The tree all decorated with lights

and ornaments~ so pretty!

I love Christmas and this

time of year!
