I am so happy to say that the tree is up and decorated. I tried to talk Marcus into cutting a few feet of the tree off so that it wouldn't be such a beast to decorate, but he was not convinced. He was a sweetheart though and got a giant ladder and did the top half of the tree. At 16 feet tall this is our tallest tree so far!
I am missing the popcorn this year, but I just couldn't commit the time to something that I would just throw away after a few weeks. Maybe next year.
And unrelated to the tree, Asher seems to have discovered his tongue this week. He is constantly sticking it out, holding it and licking everything.
Happy little guy loves the bright lights and ornaments. He loves everything sparkling and bright so of course he does.
I could not convince Marcus to be in a picture, even though he was very involved with the lighting and decorating. He said someone had to take the pictures.
Probably my favorite thing about cutting down our Christmas tree is that each year our tree is so different, and no tree is perfect. I love the uneven branches and the bare spots. To me it's how a Christmas tree should be.

wow! i'm so jealous of that tree you have!
That is beautiful! At least once I'd love to experience cutting down our very own Christmas tree.
Holy Smokes! That's AMAZING! It's like you have a tree from some magical Christmas book right in your own front room! I love it! I need to see this thing in person. When do you take your tree down? Perhaps I will have to stop by before I leave town....
So BEAUTIFUL! I hope we get down there to see it! It looks so good. And Asher sure glows! He is so darn cute.
