Thanksgiving Weekend

We had such a great Thanksgiving this year! Jake had to work so we had dinner with the Schaugaard family, and then a few hours later we had dinner at the firestation. Jake's crew invited their families to come and eat. It was a good day with a lot of good food, good family, and alot to be thankful for!
The day after Thanksgiving, we went to Kemmerer! We love to go there, and had alot of fun. The kids love going to the chicken coop to gather eggs. Jake and Blake were able to go duck hunting, and Stratton and Austin went with them one of the times. They all loved that.
When we got there on Friday, we went to the forest to get fresh cut Christmas trees! Jake really didn't want to get one I'm not sure why, but we all talked him into it, and we came home with 3 of them. All strapped to the top of our Yukon!! It was pretty funny.
Madi wanted her own tree, so we let her pick one out for her bedroom.


The kids all loved looking for trees. I think we need to make this a tradition!

Your blog looks awesome! I love the photo's. Your crew looks happy! Way to go Mom! I think that cutting down your own tree sounds like a fun tradition to start!

Looks like lots of fun, also looks very cold. I love the smell of the fresh cut trees in our home.
