"Didyousee" cut, brought home, and decorated...



The search was on for our annual go-to-Pop's-house-and-cut-down-a-Florida-pine-and-call-it-a-genuine-Christmas-tree.  Or as Gavin calls it, a "didyousee."  Pop spends hours, upon hours during the summer shaping these pine trees (currently he has over 500) into Christmas trees.  Sure, other families go to Lowe's for a tree, but not us...

We (meaning Matt) SHRED ours with a chainsaw! Then drag it and shake out the needles...


                                      

  All the while, the boys rode on the gator with Mom and Pop!  Noah, spent most of his time napping...



Gavin helped to string the lights and hang the ornaments while Noah looked on... blinking lights makes a newborn very happy.




And the tractors all have a wonderful resting place for the time being. 




And let's not forget the very thoughtful John Deere ornaments that Mom and Pop gifted.  Gavin, especially likes them ;)
