Thanksgiving and Christmas trees

Well weve begun our holiday season and its been quite busy so far. Nana and Papa came up a few weeks ago and had an early Thanksgiving dinner with us. We got to go up to Uncle Paul and Auntie Em's and play with Michael. We always like to see our cousins. Then three days later we

went to Uncle Dales house for Thanksgiving with the other side of
the family. I love to go to Uncle Dales because he lives on a "farm" and I get to do lots of fun things. We got to ride horses and play in the snow and Grandpa and Kody took me and Jayden for rides on the four wheelers. Mom and dad got to ride the four wheelers out in the woods for a couple hours. They were very cold by the time they came back but I think they had fun.




The night we came home from Uncle Dales we went to Safeway for the city's christmas tree lighting. Since the fire department helps put it on dad had to work there. We had hot chocolate and watched Santa ride in on a fire truck. Then we stood in line for about an hour so we could see Santa. I told him I wanted a dirt bike and Jayden said he wanted a horse. And when we were eating dinner at the restaurant the waitress told me to tell santa she wanted a camaro. So I told him but I told mom and dad that I really dont think she'll get it. I didn't really understand why I only got a stuffed animal instead of a dirt bike but it was still fun.
The next day we went up to the mountains to cut our Christmas tree. Mom and dad pulled us on the sled while we looked for it.
Mom picked a really big one and dad said it was the heaviest one he's ever had to drag out of there. He was really tired even with me helping him. We roasted hotdogs and had hot chocolate. Buddy liked playing tug of war with Aunt Debbie's dog Sugar. I guess you could say we had a jam packed weekend but I think we all had lots of fun. Hope your enjoying your holidays as much as we are.

Wow,looks like fun. Lots of fun. Is it true about you're new found knowledge about Santa? You can blame abc that we won't be seeing you and Jayden tonight. Sorry.

Glad you guys had fun this last weekend. I saw the lighting of the tree on the news and looked for you since I thought you would be there, but I couldn't find you. Your tree looks huge. Did it fit in your house?

can I just start by saying I love the music choice, very soothing. Zech has been asking about his friends, Josh & Jayden. I think you boys need to get together sometime soon. What do you think?
