O Christmas Tree

I inherited from my father (among other things) a love for big Christmas trees. And not just big trees - enormous trees. Trees that need their tops cut off, trees that need to be secured to the wall to prevent them from fall over and, in my case, trees that fill the room to capacity. We found our biggest tree yet - so big that Lee, while we were decorating the tree, had to run out to purchase three more strands of lights. It fills our sunroom, but more importantly, it fills our hearts with the holiday spirit. Now, if only we had higher ceilings.....
Yeah, it's big - and really, these pictures don't do it justice.
I hope that BOTH of them inherit this love of huge trees! Elizabeth, who "hugs" the tree before bed and runs to greet it first thing in the morning, is already well on her way.
