Christmas Tradition

Saturday we were up early for our annual Christmas Tree Cutting.  This is the 10th year we have cut down our tree and David's third year.  We tried to explain what we were going to do, but we are not sure David truly understood.  However, he seemed very excited.
Here is David coming downstairs ready to go
a pose with Daddy
and then Mommy
And we were off, but not to Elgin.  We first went to Ghost Town in Manor for a Ghost Burger.  David thought it was great.  It is a place Daddy has been wanting to stop for over a year.  Angie had to admit it was better than expected.  Here are Daddy and David after ordering our Ghost Burgers.
David had a great time running from building to building to see what may be inside
We got stuck in the maze and had to turn around to find our way back out.  David thought it was so funny to be stuck.
Then on to Elgin to find our tree.  Here is David watching some chickens and a donkey at the farm.
waiting for the tractor to drive us to the trees...
On the tractor ride
David is never far without his lawn equipment,  here he picked up a "blower" and "weed eater."
On the hunt for a perfect tree...
David found one, he actually picked our tree this year:)

Next it was David's turn to cut...
and timber....
On the hayride back to our car David waved and yelled, "Bye Everybody." 
Pictures of our tree coming soon.  It is still yet to be decorated, some things never change!  We cut it early, but it takes at least three days for us to get it decorated!  Merry Christmas.
