Christmas Tree

The day after Thanksgiving Tara and I wanted to get a christmas tree since both of our families have a tradition of getting trees from the mountain soon after Thanksgiving. We thought about getting a cheap fake tree, but we both love real trees so we finally decided to go to a tree lot or farm. We found a tree lot on the road we take to get to church and found a nice tree there. Christmas just isn't Christmas without the smell of a real tree!

Fall 08

Since we've been so bad at posting lately, here is a brief summary of October and November. Near the end of October Tara and I decided to go to a corn maze and pumpkin patch. We found a place not too far from us and made an afternoon of it. Here are a few picture from our adventure.


The week of Halloween Mom & Dad Judd came to visit for my white coat ceremony.


Luckily school was pretty easy that week so we were able to play a little. While they were here we drove to an old historic town on the Eastern Shore and down to Harper's Ferry, West Virginia, and Skyline Drive in Virginia to see the fall leaves. Mom's birthday was the day before they left so we went to dinner at Cheescake Factory and had a little party.


Since we weren't able to go home to Utah for Thanksgiving we were invited to go to the home of a family in our ward. Every year they invite people from the ward who don't have family in the area to spend Thanksgiving with them. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed a great dinner with several families from our ward and the missionaries.
