Christmas Tree Hunt ...

December 5, 2015

We travelled around the properties ... in search of the perfect Christmas Tree ...

finally spotting a tree ... way up there ...

Mike proceeded to start the chainsaw and cut down the tree ...

We were happy that it was a rather warm day ...

and the tree landed on the ground without breaking any branches ...

Mike taking a measurement ...

making sure it read 14 feet (4.27 meters) on the tape measure ...

before cutting it down to size ...

We packed the tree into the trailer ... gathered up a few branches for decorations ...

and cleaned up the area ...

We then looked around to get Oma a Christmas Tree ...

for Joseph Creek Village ...

With both trees loaded in the trailer ... we headed for home ...

There was a batch of cookies waiting to be baked ...

The tree taken care of ... carried to the deck ... to be brought into the house ...

in a couple days ...

I did manage to get the Pinwheel cookies baked ...

as well as the Snowflake cookies ...

I will finish icing the Snowflake cookies another day ...

they take a bit of time decorate ...

 

Wishing our son Ian ...

a very Happy Birthday ... !!!

Sending our love ... always ... !!!

xoxo

Safe travels for your adventure to San Antonio ...
