It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!!!

Colin and Mandie on our way to cut down our Christmas tree

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at the McKenzie home!   Even though we will be spending the Christmas holidays with the McKenzie/Garcia family in Georgia, we still wanted to decorate our home for the holidays to enjoy before we travel!  The first decoration that we decided to put up was the Christmas tree.  While we own a cute little pre-lit fake tree that we usually put up, but this year we decided to have a true Michigan Christmas experience and venture out to a tree farm where you can cut your own tree.  Last weekend, we went to Peacock Road Tree Farm in Laingsburg, Michigan, and are now the proud owners of a beautiful Fraser Fir that we cut down ourselves.

It looks beautiful decorated in our home!

Colin also put lights on the outside of the house so that we could be festive like our neighbors.

And then, this weekend, we got a foot of snow!! Everything is snow-covered and beautiful!
