Turkeys and trees

We had a great Thanksgiving at cousin's house and hope that you all had a great one as well. I love Thanksgiving because it is the countdown to my favorite holiday, Christmas. We started a new tradition last year by cutting a tree off a mountainside on Thankgiving weekend. This year, I had to capture the event on film to share with you. The kids just love climbing the mountain and searching for the perfect tree.

Here are the troops arriving at the tree farm:

Ah, there it is, the perfect tree

TIIIIMMMMBBEEER!

Tristan is now old enough to help carry the tree down the mountain. Of course, Collin thought he could as well. He ended up stuck under a tree at one point and I just missed that picture:

Before we left for Cousin's, Collin had a play at preschool. He was such a cute little indian. Here are some clips:

I thought this little clip of him was hysterical, he was really into the hand motions:
