'I want to hurry home to you
put on a slow, dumb show for you
and crack you up
so you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
god I'm very, very frightening
and I'll overdo it'
I win because our tree is actually bigger than our entire nyc apartment ...the daybed extends just an inch away from it....it's okay though, because nothing beats the real tree scent during the Christmas season..

happy holidays everybody! i didn't put my fake tree up but i do have some lights and tinsel and candles up on the bookcase so i can put my presents somewhere
YES!
it's that time of year again...show us your christmas tree!

Great job, it looks awesome! That's a very cozy looking front room too. I bet that's the place to be on a cold day with that fireplace going (and for me some coffee ).

lizard got me sleuthing, so i now have pics of our trees from 2004 thru now on photobucket, so hereya go liz for the 'same' tree...
Thanks for proving my point!!!
JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!!!!! kinda!!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!
now that's funny...I can just picture d2d in her 80's, boring the shit out of some poor kid with an album of christmas tree photos dating back a half century :P
Nice tree as always dreams....:)
Mine is kinda messed this year...it's a fake fiber-optic...I recently moved and couldn't find the base or power chord...so I set it up with a base for a real tree, and a power supply out of my extra/junk cable box. Hopefully I don't burn the place down. As I was setting up, the bulb burned out...so I put string lights on it. If I replace the bulb, the thing should light up the whole bloody 'hood. I'll see if i can get some pics up this week...

you're a bitch too.
now your tree sounds funky (and possibly dangerous :? ) so you definitely need to post pics!
just an fyi - if someone isn't interested in christmas trees (boring em with pics ) why in the hell would they open a thread with such a title? just sayin'...

now don't get sensitive :P
I was imagining a kid with no attention span. I open all of your boring threads, dream
Trees can't help but kinda look the same if you use the same ornaments (as i do!!) When I look back on the years of pics MINE just seem to look the same! -- Maybe I should buy a pink tree!
Beautiful Tree D2D!!!
deja vu!!!!!!!
So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin' at me

who's hatin'...you know i luv ya!
just givin' back what i'm gettin'.....;)
and hey, yea...i know what you mean....all in good fun!
the biggest changed have been when i changed garlands and tree-topper, otherwise...it's simply looking at the slightly different tree shapes/sizes, tho i have to say - in person anyway - it IS a VERY noticeable difference this year. definitely the nicest/biggest tree we've ever gotten! b/c sure, as much as i try to mix it up with the ornaments, they ARE all the same, year to year. so it goes. however, i still LOVE it, b/c it's only all up a few weeks each year.
(btw - when you use a fake tree, of course it always looks the same. it is. )
Heres ours!
sorry and I just looked thru 10 pages here- I'm getting spacey- that always happens when I'm stressed
but lets see some more trees please that makes everybody feel better

YAY!
:thumbup:
and as i said elsewhere.....gorgeous!
i thought you said your tree looked the same year after year....?
btw - on my walk home from the train last night, i saw thru the window in one of the houses i pass by, a big, WHITE christmas tree. i've seen em in stores, but never actually saw one in someone's house.
I'll have to take a photo at night. At least the decorations are finally on the damn thing.
And this is the top of the tree - when my husband and I first got together we were totally poor and we made a lot of our decorations - he did the tree topper out of a Coke can. And we still make cardboard star ornaments every year - that would be our man Mike to the left of the Help ornament.
I'll have to take a better picture of that one, too.
This is our tree from last year. We didn't put one up this year cos hubby was injured and we're going to be away anyway, so . . . It feels kinda weird. I have a tiny tree (about a foot and a half) that's decorated and lit, but not quite the same
"What the CANUCK happened?!? - Esquimalt Barber Shop
LOVE the coke can star! sooooooooo sweet!
btw - beautiful built-in bookcases too!
gorgeous trees enkidu and fifthelement!
:thumbup:
oh damn, fifth, i was so focused on the tree...didn't read the whole post. hope your hubby will be ok!
and yea, i can see that. if i were to go away for the holidays, while i'd miss having my own tree....would make sense not to bother. once, we didn't get a tree....just b/c.....and i really missed it. so unless i jet off to hawaii for the holidays ...i'll always get a tree!
