We drove up to the mountains on the Sunday after Thanksgiving to cut our Christmas tree. My parents went with us just like they do every year so we make a nice family day out of it. This year we were lucky in that it snowed several inches in the area on Saturday. The kids had a ball playing in the snow. Even Cade enjoyed making throwing snowballs and sledding down the hill. We took those pictures with my parents' camera so I'll post those when I get them downloaded.
So once again, we don't have much to post in the way of pictures. Most of the those that we do have are pretty grainy because we still haven't made the effort to get a better camera. If the fact that these poor children are growing up with only 2.1 megapixel (or whatever) images to document their youth just tears you up inside, please feel free to make a small contribution to the "Help Mike & Dana Get a Better Camera" fund. Paypal is accepted. Just kidding.
The boys helped decorate the tree. Cade already has bedhead and he hasn't gone to bed yet.
Here's the one picture we took on our trip to cut the tree. I know you people in other areas of the country will laugh but snow is hard to come by around here.
Here's our house this Christmas. It isn't blurry because of the camera it's because I didn't use a tripod.

The lights look great! I'm sure the snow added just the right touch when you were picking out your tree.
We have lights, too, this year. But the thing is, one side of the house has blinking lights, the rest don't. Hmmmmm
You said the picture of the lights on the house was blurry, but you have to remember that Christmas lights always look prettier when you squint just a little bit!
We always love the pictures of the kids. Make sure you get lots from the big Wiles Christmas at Inlow -- we'll be waiting!
