It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

We kept up with our new tradition of getting our Christmas tree on the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  We went back to Snickers Gap in Round Hill and were a bit more strategic in our hunt for a tree.  Last year, we ended up having to drag our trip up a big hill to the barn to pay, so this year, walked uphill, exploring trees up that way, which allowed us to drag the tree down hill for the most part!  Brennan was very excited about picking a tree!
He walked the fields, and kept picking out random trees, saying, "this one is perfect."
In not too long, we found the perfect one for us!  Brennan really wanted to use the saw to cut it down, but we quickly convinced him that Brian should handle the job!
He did (sort of) help drag the tree to the barn.
We got a soft pretzel while waiting to pay and that made Tyler happy.  I thought this picture showing his teeth was pretty cute.
We got the tree home and all set-up!  It's hard to see in this photo, but we got a new, angel tree topper this year that Brennan picked out and a new tree skirt.  We still need to put up lights outside, but at least the inside is starting to feel like Christmas!
