Every year we go to the same place to cut down our Christmas tree. It is always so much fun and everyone looks forward to it. This year we luckily got about the nicest day we've had in months!
Right off the bat Zachary found a ladybug that he carried around with him pretty much the whole time.
Here is Kathryn and mini-Kathryn. Oh my, how this little girl adores this big girl. Inseparable. Tonight Kathryn and Kylie spent quite some time in Kathryn's room with the door closed doing 'girlie things', aka painting toenails and styling hair. Kylie came out with her hair straightened and literally looked like a mini-Kathryn.
Both Matthew and Kathryn are saints when it comes to the 3 little kids. I cannot tell you how grateful I am that they are such amazing older siblings.
Our neighbors, aka our next door family, came with us this year. Mike and Jake were having quite the fun time. I kept trying to get Mike to buy the biggest tree I could find for their house and he kept saying, 'That tree isn't in my price point.' I just had to laugh because it isn't very often around my house that I hear the term 'price point.'

Um, look how big this kid is. Oh yes, he is huge. We used him, all 6'6" of him, to help us measure our trees.
The whole time we were there, this helicopter was moving trees right above us. At first it was cool, but after awhile it was annoying as it was so loud!
The 2011 Sommer Family photo in the Christmas trees. Seriously, we tried 5 times to get everyone to look at the camera at the same time, but this was the best we got. Oh well.
