Oh Christmas Tree

One night last week I returned from the gym to find broken ornaments on the floor, desk and table in the office along with many pine needles from the Christmas tree all over the floor. I looked to Jeff for an explanation and he informed me that when he tried to plug in the tree when he got home, the tree fell over. We discovered that some of the bottom branches of our tree were preventing it from sitting appropriately in the tree stand. There was only one solution: take everything off the tree, take it outside, trim those limbs, bring it back inside and redecorate it. Ugh. So we did just that.

Tree on the Front Stoop Getting Trimmed
Studying the Stand in Relation to the Tree Stump
Lots of Pine Needles Finally-the tree is back up with lots of ornaments and lights!
