O Tannenbaum

This is how Joseph decorates the tree

Getting the tree this year was not what we hoped for. We went to the ranch thinking we'd have a nice picnic and pick out a tree. It turned into a blizzard half way up the mountain. Bare roads suddenly had a foot of snow. When we turned off of the county road to drive into the house I'm not sure if we were ever on the road. We got out of the truck and had snow up to our knees. The wind was howling and it was 0 degrees. We decided to just turn back before we got blown in. Dad jumped out of the truck and cut the first decent tree along side the road we saw. And we boogied down the mountain.
