Christmas Tree Hunt

It wasn't much of a "hunt" this year after all.  While we were shopping for the perfect tree, all Reid wanted to do was ride on the push carts that are used to haul the trees from one place to another {I wonder where he got that idea in the first place?}.

Then once we arrived home to unload the tree, all Reid wanted to do was push his lawn mower in the alley.

Finally, once dad got the tree in place and ready to decorate, all Reid wanted to do was climb on the step ladder.

Basically, I said all that to finally say - our photos leave a lot to be desired, but they do, in fact, tell the true tale of our Christmas Tree hunt!

Side note:  earlier this day, Reid took a little tumble while playing at the park, hence the red nose and scratched up face.  Other than the bark and mulch all over his face, in his mouth and up his nose, he handled it very well!

 This was the best pic I could get of Reid riding the cart

This is one of the only ornaments on the bottom 1/3 of the tree.  I have a feeling our tree will look like this for a few more years.

Reid may not of gotten into the spirit of the tree hunting trip like normal, but I bet he had a great time with all the "guy" things - riding, climbing, pushing. Looks like dad had some fun too. Reid's shirt says it all - Santa's helper. You go young warrior. Hugs and Kisses. Merry Christmas.
