The Amazing Tree Experiance














So on Sunday we took a family outing to go cut down a Christmas Tree. We decided last year we were going to try to start a new Family tradition by going and cutting down our own tree. I threw out the fake one just to make sure we dont give in. Dagan and Whit were nice enough to hook us up with a permit (Thanks Wade, Dagan, and Whit) and then they invited us to go along on the adventure with them. Heaven only knows what would have happened if we would have tried it on our own. It was a beautiful day and a great experiance. We started out with three 4 wheelers and 2 snowmobiles to get 13 of us into find trees, do to difficulties with the snow and 4 wheelers we ended up with 2 snowmobiles (a couple of sleds use your imaginatioon) to get 13 of us back in the trees. Dagan and JC created the shuttle service and i dont think there sleds were really meant to cary that many people. We got to the trees and found some great picks. Ryklee had to have a walking stick and i dont know how many time someone almost lost an eye. We got the tree Rems and Ryks wanted and took it home. Highlight of the trip has got to be Dagan getting his unstuckable sled stuck and plastering Whit and Ryks with snow and mud. We got the trees loaded and finished the day with a couple of trips down the sledding hill. The girls had a blast and didnt want to leave. I hope this is a tradition for the ages. Definatly a must. Thanks Dagan and Whit, and Fam for the good times.
