5th Annual Christmas Tree Chop!

here it is! well the middle section at least. This is our 5th annual Christmas Tree Chop and 3rd here in Colorado! We had our hands full this year with Natalie trying to trudge through the 8 inches of snow in her 2 inches too big boots and wearing dad big mittens that go up to her shoulders made it hard for her to focus on looking for our tree this year. Meanwhile Lindsay is got Tyler in a polar bear suit and thrown over her shoulder on the look out for the tree. Lindsay spotted our tree this year (fir tree 7 feet tall) and then called in the calvary to chop it down! We had a blast this year even though our hands were very full of kids and tree sap. On the way back home Natalie fell asleep while the snow was coming down as we drove through Garden of the Gods singing Christmas tunes on the radio and spotting deer in the park. Merry Christmas!

Is that legal? Cutting down a tree in a state park?? or was it outside. I miss snow!

We need a picture with everyone in front of the tree with all the lights and ornaments! Love the one of Natalie sleeping in the car. So cute!

It was in Pike National Forest .... 10 bucks and they call it "tree thinning" everyone else calls it "cheap Christmas trees"
