Sarah's 1st Christmas Tree


We went to a Christmas tree farm not far from our house on Saturday. This was after driving 3 hours from Illinois. The ad said cut your own or we will cut it for you. The guy running the place handed Dave the saw and a carpet square and pointed us in the direction of the 6 footers. Poor Dave! haha I took a couple of pics of Sarah and Daddy in front of the tree before he started to cut it. We were not dressed for this at all. It was on a bluff so the wind was really blowing and none of us had any gloves. We didn't know we would be cutting it ourself..thought we would just pick it out and sit back. haha Dumb! Got the tree decorated yesterday with help from Dave and Sarah. She has done really well with the tree. Such a good girl. She only looks at the ornaments or just puts one finger on them. Praying that keeps up! She is such a sweetheart (most of the time..but alot lately!) If we hurt ourselves, she is right there to say "I kiss and make better?" I have said that to her a few times..and usually get a stern NO! LOL The only real "problem" with her is at the dinner table. She loves to throw food when she is done eating. Drives us nutso. That and saying NO to everything. Other than that she is a wonderful little girl. While at Wal-Mart yesterday, we went by the toy cars. She immediatly wanted a car. I said "ask Daddy". I know..so nice of me! So she said "Daddy I want car". LOL Of course she got one. Well two..the cheaper ones came in a two pack. He said she was practicing now for when she wanted the real thing. LOL She loves her Daddy so much. He has a set of drums..she wants to play them, he loves cars...she has to have one too even if it is a toy, he loves to play on his pinball machines..she has to "play pinballs with Poppa". So cute. I love this stage..but then I love every stage she goes through!
