We went to Harrison's Tree Farm, and cut down a xmass tree. I've been thinking for years about how to 'be green' and still have a real, xmass tree. I think a living tree is what we will do in the future (and have done in the past), but this year, driving past the tree farm, we just couldn't resist. Sorry tree-we feel guilty, but will be sure to enjoy you thoroughly so that it was worth it! At least we supported Small Business Saturday, right?
Moorea tried to help dig it up!
Solari enjoyed playing in the first snow of the year!
She made her first snow angel!
We went nordic skiing at Mt Hood. There is lots of snow.
We put on tree on the front porch, to be enjoyed there for a few weeks before bringing inside.
And we capped the day off with the tree lighting ceremony on Mississippi. It was a really fun event, with music by my two favorite children's musicians-Tylena aka The Fairy Funk Mother (I kind of wish someone would give me that nickname) and Mr Ben!
Overall, it was a PERFECT day!
