Hunt for the perfect Christmast tree




Each year the weekend after Thanksgiving, rain or shine, freezing or comfortable, we gather the Bielozer troops and head out in search of the perfect Christmas tree. This year was no different. Friday it snowed all morning, so we put on all our snow gear and headed out (the snow all melted by the time we got out there).


The boys loved the wagon/tractor ride out to the fields. This year was so fun because Ty totally had an opinion on what tree we should get. For the first 15-20 minutes he would not leave the side of one tree because he wanted it and was convinced someone might take it if he left it. Fortunately we were able to convince him otherwise (the tree was only 3 feet tall) and eventually found the perfect tree. Ty loved helping to cut it down and carry it back to the tractor.


Grandma and Grandpa surprised all the grandkids with a set of ornaments from our Disney trip this past summer. Carter said "Thank you Grandpa" all the way home. Thank you Grandpa (and Grandma).

what a fun tradition! Kris made us get an artificial tree this year so we didn't get to search for a tree.
