Talking Let's see your Christmas Trees!

We put up our tree a week ago, just yesterday got around to downloading the pics off the camera. It's nothing extravagant, but other than listing a little to the right...I think it looks pretty good. Now we just need to fill up the bottom

Nice tree!

Geez Kevin, we're not even cutting our tree until tomorrow. You've got us beat by a mile.

Anyone else?

I wanted to get our tree the weekend after Thanksgiving but, BF said that's too early. So, today we are going to get it. Hopefully, we can get some pics after it's decorated and post some later. I'm sure it will give the cats something to look at besides the tank!!

Here is the "beginning" of our tree ...

Local tree farm, any tree, $40.00, cut your own.

Usually we spend a leisurely afternoon strolling around to pick the "perfect" tree. Today, with the windchill, it was barely above 0F.



Found one, just gotta cut it.



It's cut, we're frozen, let's go!

LOL beautiful family scene Teri.
Post the black and white pic to the mug shot thread. It’s a nice shot
I will add both the tree and the mug soon.

All the tree shots are great.
What about the pics of the Christmas lights outside? Lets see them too!
I spent 2 hours driving the nieces around looking at house lights tonight.
Gotta love Christmas

Nice trees everyone! Me and my girlfriend are out of town over Xmas, so no tree here. I'm such a stick-in-the-mud about such things anyway... we lost all the decorations in the fire, replacing all that stuff is one expense I'm not looking forward to. But...hooray! It's off until next year. More money to spend on the boy.
