Went out with my daughters, son in law, granddaughter, wife and the hound and cut our tree. Sadly we had a thaw and lost virtually all our snow in the last 2 days - pics always look better with snow.
All up and decorated. 80% of the ornaments are homemade by either our kids when they were little or 33 years ago one of our wedding presents was a set of 40 homemade ornaments (including the angel on the top of tree) from a family friend who had very little money at the time but was very artistic/crafty. Probably my favorite and most used wedding present. Tree was 10"6" and 8 feet wide as cut. Trimmed up and in place she is 9'6" (we have 10 foot ceilings) tall by +/- 7 feet wide:

Never violate a woman, nor harm a child. Do not lie, cheat or steal. These things are for lesser men. Protect the weak against the evil strong. And never allow thoughts of gain to lead you into the pursuit of evil.

"A little full, lots of sap" lol
A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.

Wow! Boone & Crockett Tree for sure!
We have tree ornaments that go back in excess of 50 years.
And even thought it is just the two of use, we are as excited a kids when we get to setting our tree up.
Won't be nearly a magnificent as yours, but it will fit our humble little abode quite nicely.
Merry Christmas!!
Cheers!

We had our 3 year old grandson over to help hang ornaments on our tree . The joy on his face was the best present we could ever receive.
