Last week we set out for a tromp through the forest to find ourselves a Christmas tree It wasn't very cold and had just begun snowing Will had been farther back in the forest and said he knew of the perfect spot to find a Christmas tree. So we followed him through areas of fallen trees and brush, travelling on the less-steep crossing of the ravine, through tall growth trees, and over the creek.  We spotted lots of animal prints in the fresh snow In the above photo Delilah is pointing out these footprints- rabbits and grouse crossing over each other  And then we came to the top of a little mountain and, lo and behold, little Christmas trees everywhere!  Just look at them all!  Pretty Christmas tree-y in my opinion!  Going up a little higher to reach (what we're pretty sure is) the highest point on our property That back there looks to me like a prospective picnic nook... Back down to select a tree Once we found The. One. each kid had a turn at sawing the trunk....
