Christmas Tree Farm Day

We have a family tradition every year to go out and cut our Christmas tree down the Saturday after Thanksgiving. We had a big breakfast of eggs, bacon, etc. to start us off on our 1 1/2 hour trek into the mountains. This year we went out with Mom up to Jefferson, North Carolina to Top of the Mountain tree farm and it is definitely on top of the mountain and has a great view of Blue Ridge Mountains. We found the perfect tree…it was the first one that Dustin spotted. When we got home we started decorating the house. We didn’t know how Abby and the puppies would do with the tree. Abby thought it was fun to turn the tree lights off and on with the floor clicker we have. That was nipped pretty quickly and overall they all did very well and learned quickly not to bother it. Abby also got to open her Christmas present (a kitchen) from Grandma early so she would be able to enjoy it longer. She loves it and loves to pull everything out of the cubbies and off it…she’s in a little bit of a destructive phase. Her favorite fake food were the hot dogs but unfortunately they were Gracie and Zoe’s favorite too and didn’t last very long :(.
