Oh, A Tree Hunting We Will Go!!!

You may be wondering why we skipped such a major holiday, going from November to December without so much as a mention of Thanksgiving.  Well I had to work... so I left it up to Kim to document all the Thanksgiving festivities that happened... well guess what?!?! Kim not only did not blog, but did not take any pictures!! Kim I believe you just got herbed!!!
 
Anyways Thanksgiving weekend we did our traditional tree hunting with the entire Burkholder family.  Another great year with family, eggnog, saws, and the smell of winter in the air!! We all drove down to Morgan Hill and found our Christmas tree.  Little did we know then that the trees that we picked would cause us so much grief!! Since the lighting and decorating of both trees (one at Debbi's house and one at our house), the Burkholder's tree fell over, and it wasn't even Emerson's fault!! Believe it or not we just picked that crooked of a tree. As for our house... our tree must have had a lady bug nest in it because we have had an infestation of the little red bugs since.  Its been hard to rescue them before the cats get to them.  Talk about peace on earth between all creatures!!
After we chopped down our tree we went home and hung ornaments and listened to Christmas music.  Sam was the honorary guest to put up Christmas Bear on top of the tree... she is officially in the family and there is no escaping us now!!
