| This our our old-fashioned Christmas tree... I took our kids into our woods with me to search for the perfect tree. :o) (It doesn't look like it in this photo but it's about 8 feet tall.) So fun to decorate with the kids. My wife made the tree skirt. :o) The best part about it all... I woke up at 2:00 a.m. the night we had decorated it to find our 4 year old son sitting in the livingroom with all of the lights off except the lights of the tree. He was just sitting there, looking at the tree and smiling. :o)

| What a delightful tree, nothing wrong with old-fashioned! Sure brings back some memories for me that were kind of 'hidden' till I saw your tree. Thank you! luv, Karen |

| What a neat Christmas tree. Love all the beads you strung on it and that tree skirt is wonderful. This reminds me of decorating the tree when I was growing up. I can remember stringing popcorn for ours too. Such a pretty setting. That little 4 year old sounds like a kick in the pants! So special to have memories like this. His little rocks in front of Karens village piece was so cute too. Punk |
