Let the search begin

Every Saturday after Thanksgiving the Roberts head out to find our annual Christmas tree. Each year it's ALWAYS an adventure.....and this year was the same. We first headed up Gooseberry, but we didn't get to far. We came across a couple of trucks that were stuck. Of Course Joe was able to get them out, like he does everyone....but without the snowmobiles we knew we couldn't go on. So we headed out by Loa, which was a long drive for a tree! Denice and Sophie hanging out for Ryan to bring our tree back. I thought Ryan was just going to cut the one we spotted down, but a half hour later when he hadn't returned I knew he had ventured off.

Poor Warner made the long trek with his dad! He was relieved to see uncle Ty. Warner bug was completely EXHAUSTED hauling that tree down the mountain!
It was a all day experience that we hadn't planned on. We didn't take much for food, because we thought we'd be home in time for lunch. Luckily we made it home just after dinner time. Everyone was STARVING and COLD!!! But hey.....we have our tree and love it!
