Tree Trimming in Kent

Posted On December 18, 2006

Tristan’s good friend Rory once again invited the Paynes up for a visit to Maple Stone, his family farm in Kent, CT.

The weekend involved helping Rory’s dad steady the tree and collect logs for the fire. Tristan really appreciated the logs…and the resultant fire. He seemed to enjoy it more than Sesame Street.

Rory’s 6’6″ dad makes the tree look much smaller than it really is. The 13″ tree was about as wide as it was tall. All the adults had a great time decorating the tree while visions of sugar plums danced through the heads of the sleeping babies.
