Gina's December's Tradition

Hi Ruby Rock-it fans!

Welcome back today.  I would like to share one of my favorite holiday traditions with you.  Each year, our family drives up to Apple Hill to cut down our family Christmas tree.

Apple hill has several ranches that sell Christmas trees.  You can pick out your own tree, then they will cut it down and load it up for you.  There is so much to do and see at Apple hill.  We always enjoy fresh carmel apples there.

They have a fudge factory where you can load up on sweets and learn how fudge is made.

There is a large fishing pond, filled with ducks and fish.  You can rent a fishing pole for the day.

My kids like to hang out by the fishing pond and feed the ducks.

They also have many small shops where you can pick up fresh apple pies and apple wine to take home.

When we are done playing at apple hill we get to take our fresh cut Christmas tree home. 

This is a tradition that our family enjoys every year.  The kids always look forward to bringing an apple hill Christmas tree into our home, and they look forward to decorating it too. 

Thank you for letting me share our favorite December tradition with you.  I hope that you come back tomorrow to read all about Becky Olsen's favorite December traditon.
