We don't get a Christmas tree. We plant a fir in the yard and let it live its life in peace and serenity.....


Nah, if we get one we go out to a lot where the tree is still planted and cut it down. Love the smell of a fresh cut tree.

We have a tree farm about 6 miles from the house.. makes it easy and a event all at the same time.. used to go with our sons.. Now our grandson goes with us..

We used to wander all over the tree farm looking for the perfect tree.. now we can usually find the perfect tree within 100' of the truck.

I'm going to cut mine tomorrow. I picked it out 2-3 months ago.

I had a real tree once and didn't like cleaning up all the needles that fell off so switched back to a fake tree. I did like the fresh pine smell.

Default Fake Tree - BIG one

It only takes 1/2 hour to put it together, but it smells like attic. I spray it with Febreeze and get some free branches from a real tree seller so the house smells like tree a little.

Ever noticed that real trees barely smell anymore? They don't. I wonder why?

pine trees will start to give off that pine aroma as they dry out-
