Our Family

Apple New Year! This is a picture taken on December 28, 2012, of most of our Apple products we had with us during Christmas 2012. On the floor on the left is our first computer, bought in 1987. From the left: Sam, his wife Amber and their daughter Evelyn; Katie behind Suzie, her husband Adam with their son Tyson; Shelly and her husband Drew with their daughter Aubree between them and their daughter Kinzie on Drew's lap and their daughter Isabelle; Brian and his wife Brittany standing behind them, and Heidi and I.

Getting The Christmas Tree

Heidi wanted to get the Christmas tree while Samber (Sam & Amber) and the Shades were still in town. So on the Saturday after Thanksgiving they went to our favorite (read: cheap) Christmas tree farm to pick out a tree and bring it home. I had to work, so I missed the outing this year.

 Of course a day is not complete without bugging Isabelle and Aubree.

 Samber posing for a picture among the trees.

 Family picture. Believe it or not, this was the best picture out of the bunch.

 The people that run the tree farm usually will cut the tree down with a chainsaw, but Sam wanted to play lumberjack with a handsaw. After all, he had the beard for it.

 Sam and Katie hauled the tree to the cars.
Sam leading the way...

 Heidi tying the tree down on the top of the Shades van.

 Almost done tying down the tree.

Ready to roll. Time to take the tree home and clean it. Then time to bring it inside and start decorating.

The End
