Hatten Family Day at the Christmas tree farm


This year's annual Hatten family day was a trip to the Christmas tree farm to cut down our own Christmas tree. Every year Jay wants to go somewhere and cut down our tree, but we usually end up grabbing on from the roadside stands or whatever seems easiest.   But this year we packed up, drove a little farther away, and found a beautiful tree. We had great helpers with cutting the tree down!

It was a great Hatten family day! We spent the morning cutting down our tree, roasted marshmallows, ate a picnic lunch, and sampled lots of types of cider at the farm. We came back home for nap time that afternoon. That night we went out to dinner together and watched a Christmas movie that night. It was a great low-key day dedicated to just our little family.

I love the tradition of having a day set aside for our family each year. It's always a different day and different activity, and the kids already have fun thinking  back over the memories of previous years.
I love our sweet family and love making memories with them!

Looks like you guys had fun! When do you find out if baby #6 is a boy or girl? What's your mommy intuition?
