Xmas Tree Hunting 2008

We went this last weekend & got our Christmas tree. There was absolutely NO SNOW, so we didn't have to tromp through 3 feet of it to get to our perfect tree-which was REALLY nice. Nat found her perfect tree almost instantly. It is about 12 inches tall & just stunning in her mind. We got our tree, one for my sister & one for Sue's son all in about an hour, had some lunch & were home to decorate with in no time!

"This is hard work," she says.....
arg....gotta get it to the car

Lone-Picture


This is the ONLY picture I got from Thanksgiving because I too was a lazy bum & didn't get my camera out! It was a goo time though. We went up to the Christmas Tree farm w/ my family that morning to help pick out their trees! The kids love it because they get to run around & be crazy. We love it because it gives them something to do! Then we went to Sis & Stans (Trav's mom & her boyfriend) for Thanksgiving dinner. The butternut quash soup was my personal favorite! Nat & Wyatt had a great time together. They played so well! Very cute!

Well, thanksgiving came & went. It was actually a very relaxing break from work, school & all the stuff that usually keeps us so busy. The following Monday sure was tough though! :) Natalie has her first dance recital this Friday. They will be performing at the Riverside Center in Wenathcee on Friday, then at the Mall in East Wenatchee on Saturday! they haven't had a practice since a few weeks ago because of the Holiday & they have yet to get their costumes.....so it should be interesting! There will be several performances at the Mall in December, so if you can't come to the first one....not to worry because we will basically be there every Saturday this month. Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving! Better clear your schedule if you are going to look at the pictures though.......there are several! Take Care-Trav, Nat & Kristen
