It is a Jewell family tradition to go to Bowman's Tree Farm after Thanksgiving and cut down a beautiful Christmas Tree. This was Brayden's first year to participate and he had a blast. We took a ride on the wagon out to the big trees and then trekked through the mud and up the hills until we found the perfect tree. Except of course for Brayden, who was carried up the hills and through the mud. (Brayden has never been a real fan of walking and this was no exception.) .JPG)

Once we found the perfect, approx 10 ft tree, Brayden and Gary started sawing away. Brayden was quite the help, sawing the tree down with Daddy.

Finally, we loaded our beautiful soft pine tree onto the wagon and finished off our successful hunting trip with hot chocolate and candy canes.

This is a great Christmas tradition. Who hangs the star on the top of a ten-foot tree?
Definitely Gary but they are bows and not a star. I always try on my little ladder but the base is to big and I can't ever reach the center of the tree. You should see me put the lights on. It is a nice wrap and then throw over the tree. It really is amazing that nothing gets broke. But it is a lot of fun and Brayden loves climbing up the ladder and putting on ornaments.
