I have never had a real Christmas tree but this year I decided it was time. Loaded up the family into the Tacoma this morning and headed to the nearest tree farm. I’ll post more pics once it’s up and decorated. Let’s see everyone’s Christmas Trees!

Looks good!

Lovely - can’t beat a real tree. The smell and feel of it brings Xmas to life.

Nice!

My wife and her family celebrate Christmas for About 6 weeks ... I’m trying to hold off on the tree for another 2

Laszlo · 3 December 2018, 11:22 AM

All of those trees are so perfect. Nothing better than a real tree. Two-years ago we decided to go with a fake tree, they got so real you can't really tell the difference visually. But you do lose out on that smell and authenticity.

Awesome, my wife and kid put up the tree last weekend, a little early this year.....and then my nemesis also showed up.....that elf on the shelf. What a nutcracker he is.

Gotta have a real tree in a log house ! Since this will be my last Christmas in log, my daughter is grown and has her own place, keeping everything simple. Not bad for a bachelor though ..........

Yep, building a four bay garage house with 850 sq ft living space, all one level on a small lot ! I’m done with the “house and land thing”, time to live simple and enjoy life.

Lol, sounds like my kinda house!

We just got back from a 2600 mile trek in our Saab and picked a tree up on the last 10 miles home. Good times for sure.

James K · 3 December 2018, 03:44 PM

What'd ya get? I'm a sucker for Noble Fir trees. Got a 9 1/2 foot one this year.

Fir

Rock · 3 December 2018, 04:42 PM

Those are beautiful trees! You should see what passes for a fir tree here.
When the kids were little, I used to go off with my axe and find a small fir tree beside the road and cart it home in the back seat of the car with half sticking out.
It would drop all it's needles and be dead as a Dodo a week before Christmas.
Smelled nice, though....

SearChart · 3 December 2018, 06:42 PM

We put it up over the weekend, mom knitted the balls herself, and we have some little metsl puppets from Copenhagen hanging in there.

PM me and I'll send you some frankincense. It will bring the christmasy ambience to your fake tree.

that Elf ... always getting into trouble

In 2016 the Official Christmas Tree at the Christmas Market was a beech tree. Traditionally, conifers are used for this purpose.

Fat_ninja · 5 December 2018, 10:01 PM

Miss putting up our tree.

I dont put up a tree anymore,... every place i turn in vegas theres a tree and its bigger and better than what i would even attempt. So now i dont even attempt.

tudorbaja27 · 6 December 2018, 12:09 AM

Love christmas trees

Though I'm never home for Christmas - so never had actually my own

Kimber007 · 6 December 2018, 03:13 AM

Great thread!

Have to stick with the artificial ones here due to allergies but still turned out pretty good!

pyrostick · 6 December 2018, 02:48 PM

I absolutely love real trees, here is ours from a couple years ago.
