Christmas Traditions: Cutting our own Christmas Tree

I recognize that over the last 40 years or so we have developed Family Traditions.  We didn't really plan them, they just seemed to evolve. I never would have imagined 30+ years ago when we set out to chop our first tree that not only would we still be chopping our own tree, but that we would go with our grandkids!  So here are a few pictures from then and now.
This is our family on one of the early expeditions in the late 80's I think.



Here we are in 1993...25 years ago

We brought our green sled along on that trip

We brought that same sled along this year

And a new generation posed with their trees


And as usual our tree was a little bigger than it looked

Fortunately we had Sarah and Toby to help us carry it to the car.

We have a wonderful life!

  1. This is the hardest tradition for me to get over letting go of.
