The day after Thanksgiving, we went to a Christmas tree farm owned by some friends of my parents, and we had the BEST time! We weren't there to get a tree; we just went for all of the festivities, of which there were many.
Everyone visited with Santa, even though he doesn't play a large part in our Christmas celebrations:
We went on a scavenger hunt to find all of his reindeer (or...the foamboard representations thereof):
We went on a really sweet Christmas equivalent of a hay ride through the fields:
There were crafts:
Cookie decorating (and eating):
And then...the petting zoo. It was nearly impossible to extricate Lily when it was time.
Goats. In Christmas jammies.
They were really so cute.
We also had hot chocolate and silly photos before heading out:
The girls had the absolute best time, and all the grown-ups really enjoyed tagging along. But, Poppy was a work all day. Since our admission wristbands lasted for the whole day, we went back that evening so Poppy could have fun, too. Which he did.
Hallie wasn't looking in this one, so we took another...
...and Brynn made this face. Oi.
Bunnies by moonlight (floodlight)
And we wrapped the evening up with Christmas stories by the fireplace. It was adorable.
Everyone was so tired at bedtime, but we had the best day! I hope that they continue with all of the Christmas tree farm fun in future years, because the girls remember it fondly all the time.
