Christmas Tree 2009

Living in the Northwest has its wonderful benefits - lots of fresh, beautiful Christmas trees to pick from.

The girls were being awfully cute in the car on the way up to our favorite Christmas Tree Farm: Reinhart's.



Usually it's not too cold and quite pleasant, but with the unusually cold weather this year, we had to bundle up. Here's Daddy and his girls.


It didn't take too long to find our perfect tree (all the trees are gorgeous there!).

Stay-Puft Marshmallow Mama and the girls posing before the ceremonial tree-cutting.

Daddy was not short on helpers, that's for sure.
"Timber" (and Kara still says it when she looks at the tree).

So home we went to decorate. Daddy put up the lights while the girls napped.


And as soon as they got up, it was time to put the ornaments on.

Kara helped while Mommy vacuumed up the extra needles.


We had to pose by the tree for a few pictures, of course!Or at least attempt to take pictures.

But no tree is complete without the star on top.

Here's our beautiful Christmas tree this year all decorated!
