Christmas Creek Tree Farm!

We headed out to a new tree farm this year called Christmas Creek tree farm in North Bend to get our Christmas tree! We came home with a beautiful Douglas Fir! We were all excited to go on the hunt for the perfect tree and to check out the new place.

We chose this tree farm because they had all kinds of fun stuff - Santa Claus, hay rides, apple cider and cookies from a local bakery and lots of trees to pick from. However, getting the tree was sort of a mess. From the trees not being tagged, to waiting FOREVER for help, to being over-charged by $40 (we got it back), we were a bit frustrated. On the other hand, the Santa Claus at the farm was AWESOME! The cookies, cider, and warm fire made for a cozy end to the day. Jeff wants to head back to our old tree farm but I like this one because of all the 'extra' fun stuff they have. It would be nice to find a farm that offers both that was still a short drive away....we'll see.

Here is Madeleine on the way to the farm...she was super pumped to be dressed up in all her warmest clothes!

Here is the tree we decided to take - a beautiful Douglas Fir

Madeleine was HILARIOUS on Santa's lap. She would NOT look at him...very bashful but she loved the candy cane!

Jeff's has the tree and we're ready to head home.


All decorated with some of my presents I scored on Black Friday wrapped under the tree!
