    We searched high and low, hither and yon, over the hills, thru the fields, laughing all the way and finally found the perfect holiday tree for us.

    It was a chore to get set up and finding the absolute perfect, exact place on the tree for the decoration was a headache causing experience. But it is done and here it is.......

    There is a charlie brown tree in the stores here with only one green branch an one bulb.

    We got it at Walgreens this evening for $10. I decided that it was the only tree I wanted to put up this year. ;)

    Very modern and very practical too Toni. The bauble is placed just where I would have put it. :-D

    I like that little tree. It has a lot of character.
    There's no tree going up here either this year. Instead we'll have the usual "inside decs" and outsude we have made a big wreath and two garland-like things draping either side of it. (I'm not sure if 'garland' is th right word...perhaps'swag'?)
    Anyway and then lights all through wreath and swag. It's pretty to see at night.

    That tree of yours looks like just the thing--and therre's also still room for pakkies as well. :)

    Wish I had seen your post before we dragged out the tree ;) We will be away this year and I debated about having a tree. But it's up and decorated now :-D

    It is adorable...that is what I will have in years to come. Of course what will I do with all my Hallmark ornaments? Dividing them among the kids and grandchildren would work out great. I have been collecting them for years and I know they all enjoy looking at them.....

    I just hope that wasn't Charlie Brown's tree from the kids show...he will be out hunting for it.
