Christmas Tree Hijinx

Well, Chris and I finally got the tree down from the attic and put it up today. Actually, Chris put it up, while I gave very detailed and helpful instructions (I wish I had a megaphone . . .). Here are our before and after pictures. By the way, if you haven't bought a Christmas tree yet, we HIGHLY recommend the pre-lit, Wal-Mart variety. I love pre-lit trees -- really cuts down on the tree-putting-up time, making it very difficult for your spouse to get mad and throw the tree out the window. Of course, if this is your idea of holiday entertainment, stick with the regular, run-of-the-mill, takes-three-hours-to-put-up tree.
