This is our biggest Christmas Tree yet! They never look that big when you are cutting them down. Lance and I had an adventure just trying to get the Christmas tree back to the cabin. We cut it down and then McGuyver (Lance) whipped off his snow pants belt (he was even willing to use his shoelaces)and tied the tree to the snowmobile and we started back. On the way back, we we got stuck on a hill (which we both fell off the snowmobile), the snow pants belt broke and we lost the tree. The tree was dragging so much snow with it that it kept slowing us down and if we stopped we would get stuck (which we did!!) I told Lance that I would turn around backwards and hold onto the tree, but that wasn't going to work either. We finally went back to the car got rope and tried it again. We just had fun the two of us looking for the tree. The kids were back at the cabin just playing in the snow.
We were happy that we could actually hang ornaments on the tree this year. Last year they would just fall off. They usually fight on who gets to put the star on the top, but this year it was so tall that Lance ended up doing it.
After we decorated and got all cleaned up we played some Uno to end the night. We are all so excited that it is Christmas time!!
