Oh Christmas tree...


We try to have a real tree each year for Advent and Christmas.  Last year, Daddy is pretty sure that he was in mountain lion territory so Mommy said he couldn't go by himself to get the tree this year.  So we all went!
 We decided to go to the National Forests near Crestone.

 We had a great time hiking in!  Jonah even found this walking stick to help him out.

He ate a lot of snowballs!
 Here we are by our tree!
 And now Mommy and Simon are posing by it:)
 The whole family!  A nice couple took our picture but Jonah was scared so that is why he isn't looking (he is in major meltdown mode at this point).
 We enjoyed sword fighting with the extra branches.
 Daddy got snowed on!
 Jonah made sure our tree could also be a motorcycle.

 It really was a beautiful day!
 Simon got tired of being carried so I switched places with him.
 He doesn't like the cold...
 But I don't mind it!
 Here's Daddy...
 And Mommy!
 Jonah wearing Mommy's sunglasses.















We let the tree rest over night and then we got to decorate it!







 Then Mommy and Daddy tried to take our picture in front of it...Yeah, that went well.










At least the tree looks nice.
