Shoving Keola down in the snow worried me for a moment.

December 5th, 2009. The Tree Hunt.
Last Friday, Kristen and my friend Sandy and I went out on tree retreival. Christmas was destined to be OURS. If we could find the perfect tree. Which we did! My friend Sandy was… not dressed appropriately. Cute though. OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA It was the first time I’d cut down a tree since I was……
