Well we ventured out on what has become and annual adventure to find our Christmas Tree...Its funny I grew up in the desert, so going and getting a tree involved going to a local lot, and picking it from the masses of already cut trees...It wasn't until I met Tom and in turn met Beth that I was introduced to tromping through the woods, or a tree farm to find your perfect tree...Well this year we drove to Georgetown to go to North Star tree farm, winner of the California Forest Stewardship Award!
Anyways so we drove a bit and came to this 90 acre farm...I have to say I really liked the layout and how you had to walk through different areas of woodedness to find the different species of tree...Holden loved the walking too...in fact as seen above he protested being carried and wanted to walk most of the way...a big walk for a little guy! Slowed us down a but but it was fun!
But I do have to say I was disappointed in the tree species...Now I know I am picky...I like sparse trees with simple lines...I like ornaments to have plenty of space to hang...I LOVE silvertips...I settled last year and still loved my tree...this year we settled too...we will see how I feel when its decorated...I'm sure I will love it too! Next year though I am holding out for the silvertip...although they are about 3 times as much!
But the day was so much fun! We hung out with Beth and Josh and most of Josh's family, and David and Pam came too!






Ok that was our fun! Let the holiday season begin!
