Christmas Tree Hunting In Quincy

All this work just to make memories. Brett and his family have a tradition of driving for 3 hours, walking up and down hills in treacherous conditions, looking for "the perfect one" (which doesn't exist), and bringing temperamental children into the equation. Fun!!


Here's Brett after about the third hike up the hill.



All I needed to hear was "honey...come look at this one" and I said, "we'll take it!!"
When we got it home we realized the mistake. It really wasn't that great of a tree. Oh well...I'm not picky, and gosh darn it, we worked hard for our Charlie Brown Christmas tree.



Bryson and his tree.



Bryson's cousins Cole and Dallas hiking up "the hill".



Brett's brother Jeff and his family. Their tree was better than ours.



So once we were done we headed for Round Table and gorged ourselves on pizza and made the trek back home. It really is a fun outing, just a lot of work.
