Cutting Down the Tree

The first day that we got to Oregon we went out to cut down our Christmas tree. Darren's family was nice enough to wait for me to get there before they got their tree. We went to a Christmas tree farm and picked out the very best tree. It was pretty cold and rainy but it was still fun. There were so many trees and they all smelled so good! It is funny how the trees don't look very big until you cut them down and bring them inside. I took my turn trying to saw down the tree, but I could barely get the saw to budge. Who knew cutting down a tree was so hard? Anyway, it was a fun new experience and we got a beautiful tree.
