Christmas in Kansas

Our first Christmas in Kansas & we went out to hunt and chop down our Christmas tree - one of our few traditions in the Ciccone household. When low and behold we brought home a Christmas tree from the tree farm that was shipped there from Michigan! What are the odds?
Here we are: Tim, Caleb, Maria, Laurey Kiehne (our nanny) and Josiah

Caleb
's highlight of the trip was the Big horse
and Little horse he befriended. Much to Caleb's dismay we kept him on our side of the fence. Caleb was convinced that he could and should go into the field with the horses. He did not learn this from his mom, that's for sure! It felt really good to do something ordinary to kick off our Christmas celebrating.

That is a funny tree story- what a coincidence. I guess its Michigan's way of saying they miss you. We miss you here in MN too by the way. :)
