Trim the Tree

This past weekend, Brian was working, but the kids and I went out with my parents and my sister and her family to find a real Christmas Tree for my parents house. In all my 31 years, I have never done this before and to be honest, I think its going to be a new tradition because it was SO MUCH FUN! We all drove out past Millarville to find the perfect tree. We packed a lunch and dressed warm.

We walked halfway up the hill and found the perfect tree! The kids loved selecting and showing Grandma and Grandpa all the different choices. Not to mention that Cousin time is the best time you could possibly have!

If you haven't noticed, our kids are obsessed with their little cousin Maverick. He's literally like a famous baby in the eyes of Carter, Bentley and Penny. lol. You are so loved, Maverick.

Once the perfect tree was selected, my Dad cut it down with the help of Logan while the kids stood in awe at the masterpiece that would soon be decorated at Grandmas house!

I love spending time with these people. Family is everything to me, to us. And we are beyond lucky to have them!
