It's the most wonderful time of the year....



Just a few beautiful pictures I took Sunday morning when we were getting a Christmas Tree.


A 'buckrub' that the hunters missed... which amazed me cause they are such avid hunters.







So.... Sunday afternoon we went to the fire station to see Santa. Oh boy... what an interesting first encounter with Santa. As you can tell - Carter was not a big fan of the man in red...




So we opted for Jason to hold him and Santa just stood beside him...




Didn't work either....



So we just put him in Santa's chair.....



and Santa thought he could sneak in... but that didn't work either.... maybe next year!


It is a family tradition for us to go cut Christmas trees early one Sunday morning every year. This year the Gilmore's were able to join us (minus Charlie... who stayed at home with Nonna). We always have such a blast. We all gather together around 7 am... yeah thats right... 7 am and go for our trees. We all spread out looking for the perfect tree. Once everyone has made a decision and the men have cut the trees down... we eat! (Out in the freezing cold... but sooooo much fun!)

The Gilmore's (Jackson, James and Jessica)



Maggie punching Claire because of some smart comment she made... Isn't it great to have her home from college? How many more days til she goes back? (kidding!)



The Drew's. Yeah... I was freezing... but my men were warm!



The Byerly's and The Drew's. A good picture except for Jason and Matthew... but what do you expect? (kidding again!)




So we got together for a group picture of all of the cousins that were there and Uncle Chris got a hold of my camera.... What a funny guy!



That's better....


Little man all bundled up trying to eat Cheerios in Uncle Chew's front seat. All he wanted to do was stand up and play with the steering wheel.


Daddy and Carter
