Tree Hunting

Finally, and as always, we got a big dump!

Super cold temps this week, but it was worth it for the light, dry snow that fell.

Someone was having a blast
in it. 

I'm surprised he could move so well with all the layers going on. 

Exactly like a clip from "A Christmas Story" while getting Kenzo dressed. 

My little mole, burrowing across the lawn area. 

Eric is on the deck - no, we don't let him play out in the deep snow by himself, mom. 

God I hope he didn't lick his way across the snow field...

Last night was Tahoma's annual Santa Claus night! 

It was cold, but at least it wasn't raining like last year or very crowded. 

Kenzo was fired up to have a few words with the Clauses. 

Either trying to catch snowflakes on his tongue or watching the steam from his breath. 

Try to figure out the mind of a three year old, why don't you.

A little private chat with the big guy and a little present to take home.

He was a bit bummed to open the bag and not see his requested toy. I told him it didn't quite work that way!

Whoa.

The Hyams family came over to our 'hood for another year of tree hunting! 

LOTS of fresh snow on the trail, but it was so light and dry and fluffy, so it wasn't bad at all. 

Gorgeous day out and freezing cold! 

Well, maybe it was a little deep for the 3 foot tall crowd.
 

Robyn on the beautiful trail.

The boys all had a turn on the saw.

Keelan. 

Mason.

Kenzo.

But sawing down a tree came in way behind playing in the fresh snow - of course!

 

Such a gorgeous day!

Just over Mason's shoulder are his parents, who walked a good distance off the trail to get the PERFECT tree.

Don't know how much weight Kenzo carried, but it did take a lot to drag this one out!
