We got our Christmas tree today. We went right up Hwy 2 into the National Forest and chopped down a $10 tree. It was a beautiful day. We couldn't ask for a more sunny, clear and fresh day with the best road conditions a person could want. We filled the day with some snow hiking and laughs. We had prayed for a safe and pleasant day and got just that! We even made it home before dark, which is a big difference over every other year. The day ended perfectly with tree's decorating completed just in time to light it up just before the boys' bedtime.

Here are the highlights:

We've got Caleb's Christmas Program tomorrow. Second time has got to be a winner and memory maker! Talk to you later.
