Bennion Family Christmas Tree

Last year some friends invited us to get a permit and cut down our very own Christmas tree. It was so much fun we decided to make it a tradition. This year was great because there was still snow up in the mountains for the kids to play in but it wasn't nearly as cold. We go with our friends Katie and Andy Aston (kids: Zach, Hazel), and Lindsay and Noah Garret (kids: Wyatt, Riley, Bear, Scout).

We met our house early for breakfast (waffles, and omelets) then we headed up the mountains that our South of Heber. Nixon got car sick on the way up and puked so he was wearing wet, puke smelling clothes...blah! But once we got there and got out he was fine and had so much fun playing with his friends. Vann does not love the snow. We put him in back pack and Nic hiked around with him. He liked that best. While the adults hike around looking for the perfect tree, the kids made slides down the snowy hills.

We all found great trees to put in our homes for Christmas and made wonderful memories while doing it. After we hauled the trees to the truck we enjoyed some hot cocoa before heading out of the mountains.
