Oh Christmas Tree

The snow came just in time for our yearly treck to the Red Flannel Tree Farm in Cedar Springs to cut down our Christmas Tree.


Anna not quite sure about the horses pulling our sleigh out to the fields...




We go all the way back in the woods, past the swamps, to get a Balsam Fir tree. The farm doesn't have many of the big ones left (most people want Douglas Firs these days), so it's almost like having our own private tree crop to choose from every year! We've already picked out next years' tree too :-)

Waiting for the sleigh to come back and get us. They always forget us way out there, and we usually end up walking about half way back before meeting up with the sleigh.



Cookies!
And of course, hot chocolate, to finish up the afternoon :-)
