'Tis the Season

For some reason, blogger isn't letting me rearrange the pictures tonight, so this post will be in reverse chronological order :)

To start, here's one of the most awkward-looking Santa photos ever! We stopped to see Santa at the firehouse on the way out of the tree-cutting area. George was very unsure of him and wanted me right next to him. He cried for a bit but managed to tell Santa that he wants 2 skid steers and 2 front loaders.
Here's our beautiful house, all ready for the Christmas season!
We cut down two trees this year for our house. The main one is downstairs in our new basement...
And the other one is a mini tree in our living room so we can see the lights from the street:

With our Christmas tree loot! We cut down 2 for us, and 2 for my parents because they're in California this weekend.
We always seem to luck out with the weather on our tree-cutting day each year. Again, it was a sunny, beautiful day to be out searching for the perfect tree :)

We've had a lot of fun this weekend getting ourselves set for the Christmas season!

The trees look perfect. Thanks for including us in your tradition, we had so much fun! I love the Santa picture, and I love that George wants 2 of everything. Why ask for 1 when you can have 2?
