We made our annual trip to the Christmas tree farm in West Middleton tonight. Of course, this year we had to brave a single digit wind chill. Rett was really into picking out a tree, but I think Hazen and Kelsey were content just eating the snow. Rett showed off his upper body strength and sawed through the tree in record time. We carried it back to the truck and then went in to warm ourselves by the fire.
After setting the tree up in the stand, my husband the redneck, used the shopvac to get rid of the loose needles. We still ended up with them all over the floor. I place the angel a top the tree and strung the lights. I plugged them in and had large sections with no lights. I ended up having to take all of the lights off and start all over with different lights.
Finally, we got the tree decorated and got the kids in the football jerseys. I was hoping to get a quick picture for the Christmas card. YEAH RIGHT!! Here are a few that didn't make the cut.
I'm so frustrated with these pictures right now, but I'm too tired to mess with it. I tried to put the pictures after the text, but it won't work!
Those pictures make you wonder what Rett was up to. Hazen was definitely getting a kick out of it!
ReplyDeleteAnd to get the pictures after the text, you put them in first and then copy/paste them where you want them after you're done with the text.
I love the Colts jerseys! Thaus surprised me the other night by getting Xavier a little Manning jersey. I have been looking forever for one in a toddler size. I felt so much pride seeing him wear it this weekend!
ReplyDeleteAt least all 3 of your kids are in the pictures. One of mine didn't want to sit still so most of my pics are of Aubrey only. I think we may try again tonight.
