Putting the Tree Together???


Okay, so I have to admit. We've never PUT a tree together before. Yep, you guessed it, we're having an artificial tree this year. Our friend had a great one in good condition and was getting rid of it, so we thought, hey, we could save a few $$$ and try it for a change. We weren't too gung ho at first, but we have all decided, it was still fun decorating and it looks pretty darn good. We do miss the smell so far, but not the mess! The nice thing is tomorrow is only December 1st, so we can have it up a whole month! Hope everyone had a chance to do some fun Christmas stuff this weekend. Have a great week.

I grew up with an artificial tree...we never had a real one, and I totally didn't mind! I think your tree looks cute! When are we going to do dinner or something?

Awww we have an artificial one too and it smells like basement! We spray it with renuzit pine and hey it's not so bad..i spray it routinely and though I feel so "city-ish" (compared to when we were kids walking out in the woods and cutting it down), I realize that sometimes you have to do and make do!

Still quite festive and cheery! I'd like to keep it up year round..you know, decorate it for the seasons like Christmas, then new years, then Valentine's, then easter and so forth..decorating it for each kids' birthday..etc but Simon said "No" bah humbug huh? LOL
