Oh Christmas Tree...

Gus, Daddy and our tree!

Each Christmas Brent and I have had fun

picking out a tree- some years we have cut one

down from a tree farm. This year we chose a new

tree farm- and we loved it. It had also just snowed-

so it was beautiful out. We will definitly go back to

this farm.

Christmas Moments...

family traditions growing up of going downtown Mpls.

and enjoying the 8th floor auditorium display of Dayton's

the Holidazzle Parade as well. Since we have been

married, we have enjoyed these special times together
