Tree Adventure 2011

Well I made a VERY last minute decision to pack the kids up in the car and meet Chill's parents up the canyon to find a Christmas Tree.  Chill had to work so I wasn't planning on going, but when Carson found out where grandma and grandpa were he wanted to go.  I knew we would have such a great time and was starting to feel bad that we were missing out so I dressed everyone, grabbed the snow clothes and a few snacks and off were went.  I knew I made the right decision when Carson said, "We are off on an adventure, this is a great adventure!"  We made it to the top of the mountain and found everybody and we ended up have a great time.  I am SO glad we went because Carson loved every minute of it.  He helped grandpa Doug keep the fire going all afternoon, rode on the snowmobile and the sled, and roasted marshmallows.  What could be better?  Bailey did pretty well under the circumstances. She was a trooper. It was pretty chilly and she did not like being all bundled up.  She could barely move (it was pretty cute though)! Once I took off all the snow clothes and let her just sit in the car and eat a sucker, life was good!  I took off on a hike with Chill's aunt Lynda and we found a good tree...it was a little tall, but I thought it would work great so we cut it down and luckily right then Uncle John came by and hooked the tree to the snowmobile.  There was NO way we were going to drag that thing back!  It was a great day.  Beautiful weather and lots of fun!
