I love my fake tree!

(It's always dress up time at our house - the girls in front of this year's tree)

This year Travis said let's get another real tree. I said NO THANK YOU. I proceeded to remind him of what happened last year with my first real tree.

He said, but I hate how fake trees hurt your hands when you put them up. So I said we'll get gloves. Then he said, but I love how real trees smell. So I said, we'll get evergreen air freshner. I still have nightmares about that tree and the months of vacuuming needles that proceeded. I was not meant for real trees. Mine are as fake as they come.
The girls put every single decoration on this tree. I only helped with the lights.

Beautiful girls! My tree is going up tomorrow. I want to put up a fake one. I have for the past few years. The girls are dying for a real one. I know what I'm in for. I'm sure Olivia will eat the fallen needles. Yes, she is that gross.

My Frasier Fur is dropping like its snowing...The first day was the worst. Today I didnt have to vaccume.
Pray for tomarrow. I do love the smell...I have no room to store a fake tree. This year God led me to Wood Nook on US1.

Love your pictures.

Happy Holidays-
Kristina

Fake tree all the way!! I can't imagine ever having a real one again -- too much hassle and I actually think my fake one looks better than most real ones we find around here ;)
