a special tree

This year Ryan went out wood cuttin' with the boys.  Along the way they decided to get a permit and chop down their own Christmas trees from somewhere deep in the forest as well.  In the end Ryan was unsure about the wisdom of this decision and asked if we ought to fetch ourselves a more proper tree instead.  Personally, I think it's one of the best I've ever had.

winter

It's been pretty cold but we still like to go out for walks down the street. I think it might be a little more difficult to walk when you're wearing three layers of clothes. Her coat won't even button up over all the sweatshirts. Maybe mommy went a bit overboard?
