Emma's 1st Christmas Tree

Today Bryan, Emma and I went to Varner's Farm in Collegeville to cut down our Christmas tree. I have been cutting down my Christmas tree for years - as the tradition began when I was younger. In those days, we would go from farm to farm - all over south Jersey looking for the perfect tree - sometimes ending up back at the first farm of the day. My brother, sister and I would be tree holders - standing next to candidates - yelling out to the rest of the family to come check out the tree we picked.

Well today we did not have much luck in the tree field. Varner's Farm must have become quite popular - because the tree field was well picked over and we couldn't find a tree we liked enough to cut down. Although Bryan did pose for some pretend cutting a tree down pictures. We ended up riding the horse drawn wagon back to the entrance to find a perfect pre-cut tree. Emma - as usual - slept through the whole thing. We then went to the diner for some brunch.
