Cut the Tree!

Yesterday we went on our annual forage into the woods to find the perfect Christmas tree. It was a great party with friends, fresh snow and much laughter!

Matthew got to pick out and cut down (with my hand over his only to guide and prevent an accident) the tree. Needless to say he was in heaven! "Cut the tree" was the chorus of the day. 

For those who live in Alberta that wish to cut down there own tree, a permit is needed ($5 for up to 3 trees). http://www.srd.alberta.ca/FormsOnlineServices/TreeCuttingPermits/ChristmasTreeCutting.aspx
