The Tree Hunt

OK,  So the family tradition every year is to cram into the van the morning after Thanksgiving Day and head over to Bonsall. The event is actually really fun, we drive to a Christmas tree farm and hunt for the tree for the season. Parking can be a challenge but we make it work. The weather was wonderful at a cool 68 degrees and of course the chillens were really bouncing around the farm looking for that perfect Holiday symbol.  We go home wash the tree down and today we set it up to the tunes of Ricky Tanner. Thats Right! Ricky Tanner. So The house is all set up, lights and all and Emma keeps asking us when Santa is coming and driving us up the chimney. (author Andy)
