Tackle It Tuesday: The Great Tree Masacre
Here is where I get to show off what I actually accomplished this past week…really I am quite proud of it!! If you want to see what other bloggers have accomplished this week past, go to 5 Minutes for Mom and check out their wonderful Tackle It Tuesday carnival, really its loads of fun!!
I took advantage of the empty house today and untrimmed my tree. Actually I practically shook the poor thing naked!! We had one night where we were garunteed no children and I wanted to take advantage of it while I could. I will say, as much as I liked how nice the lights looked stuck deep into the branches, it was a major pain getting them back out again!!!
There is the lovely tree trimmed and in its glory (sorry bad camera couldn’t get a good nighttime shot!!)

Here it is all sans ornaments:

Poor thing had its needles wrung off by the time I got the lights off of it. I guess nothing left to do but burn it this summer

I’m just so proud of myself for actually getting this done before February!!!
