In a Blizzard






So yesterday we went to find the perfect tree in Francis, UT with the in-laws. It is kind of a tradition with the Jenne's to go find and cut down a Christmas tree. Jake's mom and I went earlier this month to get tree permits at an insanely early hour of morning, and so we were all set to go. We all thought it was going to be kind of weird because it hadn't snowed yet but the late into the night on Friday, it snowed. So we woke up to the world of white and Sammy couldn't stop saying "whoa!" We drove to Francis about 1 1/2 hours away from Orem and then ended up hiking all over the mountain looking for the perfect trees. Sammy ended up getting extremely heavy and we all had the thought "Hmmm..we should have brought a sled to pull her around in." Yeah, too bad we didn't get that inspiration a little earlier that morning. But next year we are set! It ended up snowing while we were hunting and so we of course got some great pictures. We did end up finding a great tree and I even helped pull it back to the car.
