What sounds more fun than taking a 3 month old out in 30 degree weather to chop down our very first Christmas tree?
KP all bundled up and ready to go!
Mr. Husband looking for the "perfect tree"
Someone got bored and fell asleep
manly daddy chopping it down
ta-da!

What do you do? Real or fake? Do you chop down your own?

REAL all the way!! :) We can't chop ours down though, because we go for the Fraser Fir and they don't grown in good ol Georgia! But we do go to a farm to pick it up! :) LOVE your tree! It's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLOVE it! we went and chopped down our family tree on friday.. but i have a fake one at my house [but every year as i fight to get the xmas tree in and out of the box i swear its going to be the last time i lug that thing up from the basement!]
ReplyDeletei love kp all bundled up and inside your coat! too cute!
Fake, and prelit. I think that once Kinley gets a little older we'll start doing the 'hunt and chop' method. Your tree is beautiful! Do you do yearly themes for your tree?
ReplyDeleteI love this! I have never chopped down a tree before, but I seriously want to have that tradition! That's so fun! We always had real ones when I was a kiddo but since I've moved out, it's just easier for my mom to have a fake one... When I have a family, I will definitely want a real one. :)
ReplyDeleteWe used to chop down a tree when I was a kid but now we have a fake one. I think when my boys are older, I'll talk the hubs into a family outing for a real tree!
ReplyDeleteHow fun! We do a fake tree! I had to laugh that Mr. Husband has a tape measure...had to make sure it was just right huh? ;)
ReplyDeleteThat baby outfit is precious. I love how they look soo snuggly in little fleece things, sooo cute!! xxxooo
ReplyDeleteMuch to Adam's dismay our tree comes prelit....in a box. I love it. And for his sake buy a few extra tree scented candles! I said maybe next year we could do a real one....but I just remember what a pain they were as a kid.
ReplyDeleteAww love the bear suit.
ReplyDeleteWe have a fake tree. Maybe we'll try a real one one day. I don't think I could deal with the mess!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like it was a great family day! We have a real one in our living room but all the other ones in the house are fake.
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous!! I've always wanted to do the griswold method and chop ours down ourselves!! Way to go!
ReplyDeletehow freakin cute! What a great family trip to get a tree I love it!
ReplyDeleteWe buy a fake one! I'd love to chop down our own though! I don't know if we could do that where I live! Your tree is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWe totally do the real one...only way to do it mama!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful tree you got!
