This year we decided for Christmas we would be adventurous and go and cut down our own christmas tree. In order to do that we had to get a tag and that ment we had to go stand in line at Soldier Hollow. We left out house at 4:45 AM and got there at 5:30 AM. We thought that Emily would sleep the whole time but she didn't so Scott took the first shift of waiting in line with all the other hundreds of crazy people out in the cold. We watched the wiggles and ate snack and stayed worm. It was great! I soon felt bab for Scott so we bundled up at went out. Emily was not thrilled at first mostly because she hated wearing her hat but when she realized that it was cold she just stopped pulling at it. Emily did great out in the cold she actually fell asleep! I couldn't believe it but she was so warm and cozy she was actually snoring. Scott tried to complain he was cold but I wasn't bying it..he was holding Emily who kept him worm. Nice try Scott. We finally got our tags at 8:00 Am. We waited in line for 3 hours and then buying the tags and picking them up took 3 min. We will see if it was all worth it after we get our tree. I just hope Scott doesn't pee on his glove while we are cutting it down!! You people know what I'm talking about...Em, Kim Mom and Dad ha ha ha! All in all it was great fun and a good adventure.
