In retrospect, I should have listened to Steve when he warned me that the tree I was picking was a little on the large side. I swear didn't look nearly as big outdoors as it did once we got it into the house. I think we have about 2 inches between the tree top and our 9 or 10 foot ceilings. But it does smell wonderful and Abby enjoyed watching the tree get lit up and decorated.So we would have posted yesterday, but it took basically all night for us to get the tree in the house, wired to the wall so it wouldn't fall down and then decorated. It was a monumental task, but Steve is pretty good at figuring things out, so it went off pretty well. And then Steve helped Abby come up with some great poses to practice in front of the tree,
including the "gun show," "touchdown," and the 80's glamor shot pose. They had a pretty good time :-)

Beautiful Tree Abby, Steve and Jennifer, It reminds me of some of my picks in years gone by. Grandpa swore I was picking a saw log, oh well, us girls like big trees, right?
Did I read that right? You wired the tree to the wall to get it to stand up?! You knew that engineering degree would come in handy someday, didn't you, Steve?! Merry Christmas!

Yay! I love big trees! We had to measure our house first to be sure we wouldn't get one too big, because I tend to do that...
Anyway, I voted for Elizabeth because I like the name but Marty doesn't, so somebody should use it!!
