This is how it begins. You go to the tree farm and walk and look and find the perfect tree.
Then you bring it home and have to cut off some because it did not look that big amongst all the other trees. And you get it into the house and into the stand.
Then on Monday you start to put the lights on. You get about a third of the way up and realize 3 of your light strands don't work. And for some reason you just can't seem to get excited about it any more! Finally on Saturday you buy the strands you need and yes about 1000 lights later and a star you have this. (And yes I was questioning why I did not take off that branch that hangs down, but as soon as we put presents under you will not notice it!)
Then I add the red beads. Had a bit of a time draping them. But Rob loved it and wanted to know why we had to put anything else on it.
Then for family night we put on the decorations. Can you tell we don't have any real short people any more, the bottom is a little empty. But it looks beautiful and is still drinking water. You got to love a Christmas tree. Millie
