My baby's first Christmas tree

This weekend we took the train ride in Amboy, WA to see Santa and pick out Oli's first Christmas tree. It was so sunny that day but still super cold. My mom and Rob came with us on the adventure...which turned out to be quite the adventure. Oliver slept through most of the train ride and when we finally got to pick out the tree and meet Santa he was a happy little camper. Although I never let him sit on Santa's lap we got to wave at him through the window of the train ( this Santa was a little off, can't describe ).

Kelly and I finally agreed on "the tree" and we picked it out and headed back for the train. After the train ride Kelly and Rob allegedy, securely tied the tree to our car. We headed home and even though Kelly will not admit it we were lost. He told me he was taking the "scenic route" HAHAHA!! We all know the scenic route don't we. By the time we found Battle Ground we were thankful the tree was still on top of the car. Well what do you know....once we hit the freeway, you guessed it, the tree slid off the top of the car. I ended up holding on to the rope inside the car while Kelly drove with the hazard lights on, going 15mph on the freeway. Anyway we had a blast, Oliver will not remember but it will be a great story to tell our little man a few years from now.

Here are a few pics from our trip.
