Gettin' the tree

Each year in our family we cut down our own Christmas tree. Living in the tree capital of the world helps, as well as having a friend with acres of trees and a generous heart. So off we went this year to find our own special tree.

In years past the search has sometimes taken hours, interspersed with lots of murmuring and mumbling (my hands are cold! my feet are frozen! can we go now, please!!!)

This year we didn't have alot of time and spotted our tree just by the edge of the road.
