Festival of Trees
















Tonight we went to the annual Festival of Trees here in Sandy. They put it on every year and ALL of the proceeds go to the Primary Childrens Medical Center. What it is, is people all over utah, families, companies, churches, whoever decorate trees, wreaths, gingerbread houses, etc. and people bid on them. Some of the trees go for thousands of dollars. All of the trees have themes, and they all come with presents that cordinate with the tree. So there was a princess fairy tree, so under the tree it was decorated with dolls, dress up clothes, and lots of little girly things. Besides all of the proceeds going to the hospital, the best part is the trees are all donated to needy families who can't afford a tree, and EVERYTHING goes with the trees. Last year there was a skiing/snowboard theme, and they had like 2 snowboards, and least 3 pairs of ski's. We love going not only because it is for a good cause, but because Brian took me on our first date here, and we make it a tradition to do it every year. I look forward to it all year long. We went with our friends Austin and Stacie again this year and we always have a great time with them. Thanks for inviting us guys! I love the trees and here are some of my favorites they had there. These are only a couple out of the hundreds that were there. Some of these trees are seriously amazing.
