Day Three Hundred Thirty Two 2010


Neil and I trekked out to the Christmas tree farm today in search of a Christmas tree. This literally was the first tree we saw and we both liked it a lot. It's a Fraser fir, which is a departure for us from the white pine we usually cut. You can see Neil standing behind the tree. He's 5'8", so that gives you a good idea how tall this tree is. We have a 9.5 foot ceiling in our living room. I just hope we don't have to cut the top of the tree off. That would just be sad. We're thinking of stringing the vintage fat colored lights this time, but we may look into the LED versions, which I know just won't be the same. Stay tuned.

That will make a pretty Christmas tree! I love going to the tree farm. We got our tree there last year and are looking forward to going back again this year :)

Nice tree! I guess we'll just drag the fake one out of the attic this year. :-(

WOW!!! NICE!!! At first glance it looked small but now that I see Pa it looks HUGE!!! Use a mix of small white lights then string the big colored one over the white, gives the tree some depth and brightness. Can't wait to see it decorated!!!!

Hey, Kelly, we will take your lighting suggestions into consideration :) It will be different, that's for sure.
