Christmas in the Country


Every year the Autry's have "Christmas in the Country" the weekend before Christmas. It is so much fun and a wonderful tradition that I am glad to be a part of. It is an all weekend affair, but we made a day trip of it on Saturday (the best day).

We rode on the hayride and sang Christmas carols. Claire enjoyed the ride in Shelley's lap.They stop the hayride and everyone ventures out to find the perfect tree. Once the tree is selected, everyone helps cut it down. Claire loved swinging the ax with Darrell.

We decorated the tree and then Santa made a visit. Claire and Harrison both sat on Santa's lap. Claire asked for a baby doll with a paci and she told Santa that Harrison wanted a dump truck.
Harrison and Mamaw took a little rest after Santa's visit. I am so glad my kids have great grandparents to love on them!
We definitely enjoyed "Christmas in the Country".
