Annual Christmas Tree Gathering
December 5, 2004
Well, we even went a week later than usually, but no snow again this year. We were also missing Dad, Becky and Company, and cinnimon rolls. But we did gather many trees (which Michael’s dogs peed on), still had chilli afterwards, and even had an Arlint delegation joining us once again. All in all it was a pretty good day.

A truck full of tree and kids. (Although at this point Kenzie, Maysa, Kyle, Israel and Azia were the only kids. Shortly after this moment the other half joined them.)

The tree hunters begin to return…

Bryce was probably very interested in finding the perfect Christmas tree, but he was just so cozy he didn’t even wake up to help out.

Ahni--looking angel-like in her fluffy white snowsuit-- got a ride from Deva, and she was wide awake for the begining of her first Christmas season.

Azia, disguised as a grape in her head-to-toe purple, got a ride from Yaya for much of the afternoon.
