Christmas has finally arrived at the Erim house. Today Raif and I decided to take a chance and we took the kids to cut down this year's Christmas tree. I couldn't decide whether the adventure would turn out to be a cherised holiday memory or a big giant disaster. Remarkably it went really well. The kids loved walking around the Christmas tree farm and picking out the tree.
Greyson and Quinn inspected all the prospective trees.
Then carefully supervised the menial laborer.
All the sawing finally paid off.
While the Farm tied the tree to the car we enjoyed some hot cocoa.
The finished product!! The kids weren't very interested in actually decorating tree but rather fighting over who held the ornaments so Raif and I put the ornaments on after the kids went to bed. All in all, a very good day and considering we participated in an event with a hand saw and we all still have ten fingers I'd say we did really well.
