A moment of silence for the LAST live Christmas tree that
will ever enter my home... ;-)
Bought a huge one this year...had help getting it in the house and putting it up....big problem taking down by myself ... it crashed out of the stand spewing dried needles and cracked branches over every square inch of the entire room. It has taken four hours to clean up the mess. Funny how those little buggers can dig themselves right into the carpet fibers .. had to pull some out with tweezers....never, ever again...

LOL....this is the first year in a bunch that we had a live one....>>>
But the smells and the tradition made up for the messy clean-up. My kids were thrilled. We have a VERY realistic fakey, but it's just not the same, ya know?? Quit whining, we know you love to clean!!!!!

Tell me about it....In my last Apt. my roomate insisted on live trees and of
course we had 20' ceilings and always an 18' tree...
I'd be vacumming needles until the next Chritmas!! AHH....Now, I just don't do trees at all anymore!!
