Christmas was great!! Usually I keep my decorations up until after New Years Day...but I was just ready to put it all away. I'm excited for the New Year, I hope we can get organized and get rid of a bunch of stuff thats taking up our space. I also hope that we have a healthy new year - 2010 was filled with a lot of sickness and surgery. I hope 2011 is quiet and uneventful for the Wilsons. Happy New Year everyone!!
For the past 6 or 7 years we've been going to Southern Idaho to cut down our Christmas tree. We were a little late this year, because we went to St. George for Thanksgiving. The snow was covering all of the trees and there was 3-4 feet of snow on the ground. It was snowing lightly and was so beautiful this year. The kids had a lot of fun playing in the deep snow and we found the perfect tree. Actually Tyler and Heather found this one, the rest of us were playing in the snow, while they went deep into the forest to find it. It a little (well a lot) taller then I was planning on. We were going to put it in our family room (the one with the 9 ft ceilings) but this one will have to go in our front room - with the 11 ft. ceiling. Its kind of hard to tell how tall a tree is...when its in 3 feet of snow.
