Family Traditions: Cutting down our Christmas Tree!

This is our 3rd year getting our tree in the mountains, but the first time there was snow there when we did it!  I guess it usually isn't until the end of Dec. that they get their snow.  We drove from Reno to the top of the mountain at Tahoe to the Tree Farm and we barely made it before they closed at 4 because the roads were so bad getting there.

Searching for our tree...

How fun! I guess that is the bad thing about having a fake tree. The pictures of bringing it up the stairs and putting it together would get old :) Your kids are getting so big!!
