Oh, Christmas Tree

Wow today was a fun filled day! Frank ended up having the day off, so we went out to find a Christmas tree on the island. The first thing we found was a new beach to explore. I am sorry mom, I left the camera in the truck. We were there for at least an hour. The tide was out and there were little tide pools everywhere. Cort and Grace got to see: minnows swimming, a live clam, dead crabs, and lots of barniclkes. Then we did some shooting at the beach, Cort made us wait and stand in back so he could shoot his (toy)army gun. Then it was back to the tree hunt. While Frank and I were busy looking at possible trees the kids had a blast breaking the crusty ice on the mud puddles. We ended up finding a great scrub pine tree. Grace loved using the step stool while she was decorating. Wow, this has been a wonderful day!

That sounds really fun. The tree is very pretty and free. I wish we could have cut our own.
