I totally forgot to post the pictures from our Christmas Tree Hunt!! So let's pretend it's still Dec and you're all interested in seeing us go find the best tree, OK?! Humor me... Ü
So the weekend after Thanksgiving, my brother drove me home from Arizona and Jaxin rode along...
We needed to go cut down our Christmas tree and Jaxin and Eric said that neither had ever done that, so we decided to go while Jaxin was in town!
So Saturday we headed up to Kolob to look for the perfect tree... Long story short, that trip was a total bust! Here are a couple pictures from that trip...
Don't ask what Eric was doing just before I snapped this picture... Let's just say that boys are SO lucky in life sometimes! The convenience would be handy... Ü
All Kernan wanted to do was eat the snow! That's his favorite part of going out in the snow!

So that was attempt one... Sunday after church we decided to go up to Cedar Mountain and get one there, that's where we had gotten them the 2 years before so we knew we'd have luck, and Kolby and Jaxin we're headed home Monday so we had to go!
On our way up the mountain, we helped a guy and his family who's truck wouldn't start and he was stuck on the side of the road! Wrong place for that to happen!! My hubby is such a nice guy to pull off and help!! I love him!
Isn't he HOT?! Man I'm lucky!! Ü sorry he's taken, find your own!
Pretty view!
Brian couldn't find his snow boots, so he wore his riding boots!! He claims they worked really well, but he looked pretty ridiculous! haha!
The snow was SO deep! They would take a step in and the snow would go up their entire leg! Eric is demonstrating that for us here...
Kernan was of course getting his snack in... the boy LOVES snow!
I stayed on the little road so I wouldn't sink! I was playing around with my camera and my shadow! Ü
Kernan's snow angel!
Maci's snow angel...
Here come the boys with "the" tree! See how deep the snow is?!
Every step Brian took he'd sink, he was getting a little tired of it, if you can't tell by his face! I love that Eric is laughing at him!! That's just how those two are to each other! Love it!
Eric was falling back into the snow...
He's quite puffy!
Eric imprints...
The third one he made into a snow angel...
Eric's angel...
These are the icicles hanging on the side of the mountain as you drive through the canyon!
Putting up the pretty tree!
Kernan was being a super hero... He loves this cape I made for him one year for Christmas when he was like 8 months old! Ü
So there ya have it, our hunt for the perfect tree! Ü Now I can go about my day... I've got LOTS more to update on the blog! As you can tell, we've made it to AZ, we totally miss Utah! But hopefully things here will start looking up! Stay tuned for our Christmas updates! There are a few! Ü
Happy 2011!!
