Today, for the first time in my life, we all went to a Christmas Tree farm to cut our own tree. It was such a fun experience, even if it was a little warm here in Austin, TX and the farm was, well, a little bare. It’s also the first time in a loooooooong time that we did colored lights. Thought I’d go retro this year. Wish we had some of those silver tinsel icicles, too ;-). I love it that the boys are finally old enough to help out with the decorating.

I truly did not believe we were going to have time to put up a tree this year. Accomplishing this goal tonight leads me to think that maybe, just maybe, we’ll get around to taking the holiday card pic that I’ve been planning in my head for months now. Maybe…

  • You.Can.Do.It!!!!! 🙂 We went with colored lights this year as well. It’s lookin’ good, love the bokeh!

  • LOVE IT. I hope I can find a free moment to dig out tree out of the attic and get it set up. 🙂 Maybe you’ve inspired me to do it…. this weekend.

  • ohhhh, we are headed out to “u-cut” our tree on Sunday! Something for the family both in experience and meaning 🙂
    Good luck with the family pic 🙂 If nothing else go out and take it…you’ll feel refreshed when you do!

  • Love the colored lights! Definitely brings me back to when I was a kid…i bet the kiddos love it!

  • I’ve never met you, but if you need help with your famil;y pic, I can help you out! I am a big believer in photographers also getting in pictures with their fam!
