Our Christmas Tree

We've actually had our Christmas tree up for a while...but it has taken forever to get the pictures up and running...and the tree...


Tree #1





Yes, tree #1. I decided to do a gingerbread man tree this year. I made real gingerbread men, felt men and scrapbook paper men. I found cool courderoy (sp) ribbon and I even strung cranberries. I was proud of the results. Then...Isaac and Will pulled it down TWICE!!! yes, TWICE!!! and the second time the the stand was ruined and could no longer stand on its own. It lais agianst the walls for a few days until I found a solution...Our friends gave us a new tree. Thankfully this one has a more sturdy frame...and we gave it extra reinforcement...


Tree #2


It is basically the same...it just has no cranberries...I think they really added something...

And in case you missed the reinforcements...



And even closer...


Yes, it is Hooked to the ceiling...but Its been up for a few days and hasn't fallen yet...YEAH!!!!

Merry Christmas
