Each year we pick out our tree over our anniversary weekend (Dec 4th) and yes we have been married 5 yrs now. We always go and cut down our trees. It is a big deal for Billy and I to take the boys and cut down the perfect tree. However - this year we had to go buy one because we were getting our first snow storm and it was coming down pretty decent and we knew that the boys wouldn't last long if we actually tried to cut one down.
We still managed to get a great big tree (10ft tall) but it just isn't the same as the adventure of cutting our tree down. So here are the pictures of after we got our tree and then playing in the snow.
