Men In Trees

Yep, it's that time of year again. Time to trim the trees at Grandma Brown's house! Now, this use to be a huge production where all the grandkids would come with my Aunts and Uncles and we would all cut the trees and clean-up. Well over the years a system has been developed and now we don't seem to need as many people. Even though help is always appreciated!

Here are our Brown/Eastman men in the tree in the front yard. Keep going guys you are almost done!
I figured if the guys could do then so could I and so I did the whole tree in the backyard! HA HA HA! Yeah, right I did one branch and that was good enough for me. I did it more for the photo opt! : )
Stephanie did a few more branches then me. She rocked it!! It was off the chain! HA HA! Get it...off the chain like with a chain saw....gosh I crack myself up!
Are you talking to me?? This is Steph's new screen saver for work. She will have a caption that says "WHAT???" I love it! Here are Shawn and Andy finishing up the last tree in the backyard. You don't see me and Steph but we are on the ground catching all the fallen branches. It was hard work too!

When they were all done Shawn had to blow the tree! He says it gets all the saw dust out of the tree but all I do was laugh at him saying he was "blowing a tree right now!"
So the trees are done this year and Grandma was very happy she even offered to take us all to lunch and she made us oyster crackers! Yummy!! Even though it was a lot of work we all still had fun doing it but that could also be because we know we only have to do it once a year! : )
More to come!

I would like to note that this is the first year i wasn't able to go to the tree trimming event. The guys look good and I think Steph should make the one picture her christmas card or at least post it at her desk so people will know not to mess with her at work.
