Christmas Tree

 My darling husband made this tree stand for me 10 years ago.
It was looking a little rustic so 2011 Christmas gave it a makeover.
This is our second 10 feet plus tree.  The first tree to go in the stand was 11 feet plus.
This year's tree slightly shorter, but not much.  We limbed it up about four feet to make it baby proof and then it was full and beautiful up to the vaulted ceiling.

The Best Parts of Farm Life




THE BEST PARTS OF FARM LIFE:

Kitties in hay piles, fuzzy ponies, baby goats, and little cowboys playing on gates. 

Could we ask for a better life for our children.  Clean air, knowledge and good ol WORK is great for anyone.
