Ok Everyone lets see em

Violet is still to little for me to put the Glass Ornaments on the tree so They are on the windows

Too early to setup the tree, if we do one inside this year
Also too busy setting up the outside lights/display, all 10,000 watts

Very pretty, Kelli! We get a live tree but we prolly won't get it for a week or two.

I used to have a 5' blue spruce in the front of my last house that I decorated every year. Complete with lights, start & ornaments
It was kind of cool to have a living tree

No tree here....Blitz will never know the difference. I'll get her and the cat stockings full of junk the day after Christmas on sale though.

I love this thread. Kelli!! I love the way you've done the tree and your curtains. That is beautiful

Nope, haven't even started the tree thing yet. But I'm thinking about stringing a bough of evergreen across the entrance between my living room and dining room. Gotta have that scent. Then putting lights on it, maybe a few ornaments, then putting my favorit ornaments in a big wooden bowl that I have, so that folks can look at each one...touch them and hold them. I've never done it like this, or even seen it, but it might look nice.

I remember Kelli and Vinnie really being on my case for being so slow in getting mine set up and with photos ...and rightly so I keep mine up to the 12th day of Christmas (Jan 6)

I haven't even seen the trees for sale yet. But a real tree is a MUST in THIS houseold. I grewup with one of those silver trees and a color wheel. UGH!! It scarred me for LIFE!! Pics as soon as it goes up..promise!

Our Dad bought a fake tree when we were kids. 1st year my older sister bought a small real tree & put it in another room, same thing the next year. Then the next year my brother & I went out & bought a small tree for our room. 4th year my Dad gave up, it was easier to decorate/clean up one tree then three

No tree for us this year, I don't think we will put one up. Going on vacation during the holidays.




Your tree looks great Kelli!

We'll do ours soon. We got my moms up after Thanksgiving dinner. It is a tradition to have the whole family decorate after eating. It's fun to do. I prefer a real tree but the last couple of years been using a artificial cause you can put it up early and take down late. I miss that xmas tree smell tho. Guess it's time for the seasonal candles. I usually get apple cinamon spice that reminds me of xmas. Havnt found a pine scented candle that doesnt smell like lysol tho.

Guess I'll drive up and get a little one after all. This tree will be like the ultimate cat toy though for my kitten..gotta think about how to keep the ornamants from turning into mini-pinatas.

Most of the tree lot trees are cut way in advance and dry out..getting one yourself gives you a tree that will last till February and it just costs five bucks for a timber permit.
