O Christmas Tree...

On Saturday the Dzubinski's hit the road and drove out to Elgin to the Christmas tree farm to cut down our very first family Christmas tree.

When I was younger, one year, my brother, dad, and I went to a Christmas tree farm and I remembered it being a fun holiday event. Someone Jason works with suggested it to him and we decided to check it out.

The whole drive to Elgin it was raining and cold. When we got to the farm the rain stopped thank goodness, however it was cold, damp, and kind of miserable weather. But, we made the best of it! When we got there we loaded onto the tractor/hall ride which took us out to the fields of trees.



Jason and Bella on the tractor ride.



Aspen stayed in her stroller the whole time, although she really loved the bumpy tractor ride.



We strolled around the farm awhile, until there it was....our Christmas tree!



I was pretty happy once we found it--it was pretty cold. Isn't she a beauty??



Jason did a great job chopping her down and dragging her home...or at least to the main area where you had to pay.





We both thought this was a fun way to get our Christmas tree and would recommend it to anyone. Hopefully next year when we go the weather is a little better!
