The tree is up. Yes, yes, I realize that it is only November, but you can never be too prepared. Eh? EH? But... it's soo booooooooootiful.
Not really, actually. But with father's Santa ornament collection, it sure adds some spice to the ever so dull fake version of a slightly realistic edition of a typical Christmas tree. BASICALLY. It... just... doesn't look real. Especially with the metal supports sticking out of the bottom. Go figure.
Anyway. I think the Patches house was only meant to be seen in the wintertime. Cause the rest of the year it just looks like crap.
But it's so purty now!
So gosh dang bootin'ful.
It was funny watching father tamper with the Christmas lights, because he would get one section of the tree to light up, and then another section would turn off. Eventually he ordered mother and I to rip all of the lights off of the fake branches and drove to Freddy's to buy new ones. When he got back I watched him and mother try to put the lights on the tree.
Yeah....
It took our family about 5 hours to put up our Christmas Tree.
