We finally got our fire hazard Christmas tree up after 5 days and purchasing 11 extra strands of lights (I kind of went postal on the lights this year) and much fuss and bother.
Here is the finished product--with a silly boy next to it:
Oh man, I see a couple of dark spots in there, plus my bubble lights aren't evenly distributed....must refrain from adding more lights....
Anyway, here's some more shots of the tree in progress, and my girls being photogenic and my cat hating my guts:
this is our other tree, the 'kids' tree, and to show how neurotic I am, I added lights even though it is pre-lit.
So, my halls are decked. Now onto the shopping and getting Christmas card pictures.....
