Our first REAL tree...

James has been trying to talk me into getting a REAL tree for 16 years!!!  I finally gave in this year and let them go "tree hunting."  
 It's still DEER SEASON, so he must take the gun EVERYWHERE!!!  :)
 The crew following behind
 Found it!!!
 Chopping away....no chainsaws for this manly man!
 Oaks, making footprints...maybe marking the trail?!?!?!
 Hunter's turn to chop!
 Such a cute kid!
 Oaks taking a few swings!
 Not sure if James saw a deer...or he's trying to shoot the tree!
 She sure loves her daddy!
 Brit comes from behind the camera for HER TURN to do some chopping!!!
 Decorating....your eyes are NOT deceiving you...this is NOT the tree they chopped down in the above pictures....THAT tree proved a wee bit big to drag home.  So, Oaks liked this "Charlie Brown Christmas Tree," and decided it would do!
 Lin and Brit hard at work...Lin's still not sure what to think of our whacky American traditions!
 REACH, Oaks!!!  Get that candy cane on there!
 Hunter and Oaks found a way to decorate the TOP!
 Boozer even got in on the decorating
 Our STAR was a HAT!
 Ta-da...Charlie Brown would be PROUD!
 Boozer, our Christmas Dog!
Poor, Pippen...he doesn't know WHAT to think!!!
