Christmas Tradition

It was time today for our annual visit to the Whitehouse Christmas Tree Farm.

A pen with goats was a new addition this year.  Hudson had never seen one before.  The goats acted like they had never seen a dog before, either.

We love Frasier firs.  The proprietor, Duke Wheeler, sent us on quite a walk in search of a fresh one.

Dan said this tree "spoke to him".
Hudson liked it, too.

We each had a complimentary hot dog while we waited for our tree to be brought up to the work area.  Here it is being jiggled. 

We could have sat by the fire, but there were too many small children nearby with hot dogs in hand - easy pickings for a bold wiry terrier. 

Santa wasn't working too hard, but the young men loading trees were.

Our little tree is up in the sun room now and the house smells lovely. 

We'll decorate some other time;that was enough adventure for today.
