we decided we would cut down a real christmas tree this year. so we headed out to the tree farm.
brody was going to get to them via boat. i realize that would have made for a more memorable trip but there were no boats to be found.
he collected a pocket full of pinecones along the way. this little one was for me. "look mommy, it's an itty bitty baby pinecone for you...it's your wedding gift", said with this riduclously cute face.
an old, creaky bridge. little boy heaven.
sometimes his hugs are caught on camera.
"james, let me get on your shoulders to measure this one"
yep, it's two heads tall. let's chop it down.
and now he knows how to use a saw. oh dear lord.
this proud face is saying "i picked it out. i chopped it down. and i pushed it over."
on our way back home with a beautiful tree and a very tired boy with mismatched boots.
ps - I'm linking up over here, one of my favorite blogs. you can also get there on my side bar.
