O Christmas Tree


Here is our evergreen.  Truly evergreen... because it is fake.


Our tree is decorated like this...
Kid-friendly and indestructible ornaments from the bottom to about 3 feet high.
Semi-breakable ornaments from 3 feet to 5 feet up.
Delicate ornaments and candy canes above 5 feet.

But still, there is only one candy cane left (out of 12 to start)... way up high.  I can't even reach it.
Somehow Ruby got to these ones...

And there has been a steady stream of ornament repairs.  There are five waiting to be glued/put back together right now.  Not kidding.

I am glad to have a great big tree this year.  Last year we used our skinny-Chicago-apartment-tree.  It was adorable... but we have passed it along.  And thanks to a Craigslist deal, we have a big ol' tree that will work for us for many, many years.
