Trim the Tree

December 8, 2009 by persimondreams 1 Comment

So, after I got over my disappointed ‘picture erasing’ mistake, we finished decorating our Christmas tree.christmas 007  We have an open ceiling in our family room so we tend to get rather large trees to fill it up.  We go tree ‘hunting’ in the back property of Jared’s parents land.  We find these amazing trees that are usually tall and skinny…a bit Charlie Brown-ish.  This year I picked out the tree and it was a bit larger than we had planned.christmas 002So…we trimmed the bottom part of the tree a bit and created a topiary-ish look.  christmas 004 The girls can comfortably walk under the tree.christmas 005 I’m guessing it’s a bit different than other trees you’ve seen.christmas 006 What does your tree look like this year?
