Progress on Holiday Trappings

 
Anyone who has known us for very long will recognize this post as a monumental, fundamental, archival quality shift in a traditional event.

Om agreed to have a smaller tree this year.

I'll let the statement stand on its own two legs. Watch for the disclaimer at the end.

The disclaimer? He agreed to this on the promise that this doesn't commit us to having a small tree for the rest of our lives.

Well, brother..it is still beautiful and I look forward to seeing and smelling a live tree next year...no matter what the size! (but tall is good!)

It looks pretty. And it's a lot bigger than the one we have, which sits on a table.

Loretta- I am already making some plans for next year with you here. Will keep you in the loop!

Chuck, Ann and John- It's all relative. The tree is really small for us!

rainfield- the smell and the lights are always such an upper

Dennis- one tree at a time! Sounds like good advice.
