What can I say, Mr. Asher was being very photogenic ... which isn't always the case with him... so we have lots of Ash photos from this trip.
This shot was taken just today. Rhy LOVES our Christmas tree, and likes to sit on her heels and talk to it, using cute little gurgles and inquisitive noises. It's quite adorable.
FYI: I read in a magazine last year, that if you want to remember your tree every year, cut off a portion of the trunk, just about 1 inch thick. Then drill a hole through the top of it, loop a piece of yarn or twine through it and Wallah ... an ornament. I did this last year, and also used a sharpie marker to write on it, "Douglas Fir - 2007." When I pulled it out this year to hang on the tree, it really made me smile. A great idea! We plan to do it again this year before tossing the tree!

seriously? can your family be any cuter? you all look like you should be in a gap catalog! such great photos! i also love your tree trunk tip! too bad we broke down and bought a fake tree this year! :(
rowan is also smitten with our tree too. he goes up to it and points and says: "tee, tee" all day long. it's so cute!
Sweet! All the photos here are so sweet!
I noticed that your tree is fully decorated -- whereas ours has ornaments starting from the top and ending at just above Ian's height. That way, the little guy can't keep pulling ornaments off left and right! It's really funny looking: A two-thirds decorated tree! Glad to see that Rhylah is much more disciplined than her boyfriend!
Yeah, we ended up buying shatter-proof ornaments at WalMart this year, and we put those, along with other ornaments that can't break, on the bottom of the tree. At first she wanted to pull at everything, but we had a stern "conversation" about that and she cut it out. LOL! :)
I started reading this and then just kept saying OH,, Ohhhh, OHhhhhhh... over and over as I read on.
My next quote was close to Marzi's comment, I said, "They look like a Land's End catalogue family" - seriously.. you guys ought to mail out proofs to them!
Cute pictures. Looks like you had a great time. We just go to Roy's and pick out an already cut tree, but what is nice, is they use a chain-saw to cut off the bottom, before we leave. Then we put it up right away, when we get home.
