Getting into the Holiday Spirit!

Last weekend we really got in to the holiday spirit by walking the Trail of Lights at the Denver Botanical Garden and cutting down our Christmas tree in the Pike National Forest!  The walked the light trail in the evening so it was a bit chilly out (I know, I know, not as cold as MN or NY.... we didn't even get our first dusting of snow until yesterday!  We're in for a shock when we head to MN for Christmas!) so we made sure to bundle up and drink plenty of hot cocoa. :)  The lights were beautiful!  Here are a few pics from our walk:

Our little snow baby all bundled up in his stroller.. :)

A few of our favorite trees...

Christmas tree cutting morning!  B was excited!  :)

 

On our way to find a tree... which Charlie Brown tree should we pick?!

Cool rocks we saw on our hike.  Can you spot Matt and Bodee?

 

Spotting the perfect tree!  This may have been a reenactment...

Another reenactment - I couldn't get my camera out fast enough the first time.  :) Cutting down the tree!

 

The finished product!  We love our little tree!
