Simpson Family Tree


Well we have finally selected and managed to decorate this years' Simpson Family Tree. A little late in the game but its done. On Saturday, we loaded up the van with all the chilins' and made our way to Freskiw Farms for the selection of the family tree. Every year since Jason & I have been together we have been at odds with the tree selection. My selection criteria are midly different than his. He selects the magnificant full pine where as I select the less than perfect tree. More like the Charlie Brown tree as Jason refers to it. We made quite the impression as we drove our limosine-sized stroller through the tiny little tree lot. I am surprised none of them ended up with branches in the face. With hungry little mouthes to feed our tree selection this year was under 30 minutes. A record I think.
Of course Grace, Avery & Everett were in agreement with my tree selection and since majority rules, well lets say that Charlie Brown would be proud of the Simpson Family tree.

You failed to mention the chainsaw surgury we had to perform on this beast to move it from the rediculus to just ugly.

nice tree but the part that made me laugh was the stack of laundry on the coffee table. I imagine that you have these piles all over the house! Thank you sooo much for this blog since it really makes it easier to keep up with all that is going on with the triplets. Could we have a picture of each with a name beside?

Amen to the second comment. I concur. I put in a special request back some time ago for names with pictures but...... Does majority rule here. The little gremlins are getting pretty much their own looks but some times it is questionable who is it - Grace, no I think Avery, no I think Grace. Everett (Mr. Sunshine) well he's pretty much his own man. It sure is fun looking at the blog. And Kris you did a fabulous job darling with your Charlie Brown tree. Keep up the good work. Marilyn

That's not a "stack" of laundry......just wait until the kids are older (and bigger).
