The FV Christmas Tree thread
I thought we could share pics of our decorated trees. I'm hoping to have mine decorated tonight and will try and post a pic later.

Well, I have tree #1 done, but I need to install Photoshop so I can re-size the picture. I'd also like to take a few more pics because I don't believe the ones I have do the tree justice. Can't wait to see everyon else's trees.

I have to wait until dark to take a picture of mine. It's in front of the window and the light coming through makes it so all you see is a silouette of the tree

I hope I can get this to work. We put our tree up last evening. The kids were so excited. Most of the ornaments are yearly ornaments that grandparents have gotten for the kids.

This is the only on I have done right now. I finished it late last night and now have photoshop installed so I can edit.
Actually, it isn't completely done. It needs some more icicles, a few more flowers, and then it just feels like it is missing something and I can't figure out what it is. This is in my dining room, and it is my favorite tree, but I know there is something else that belongs on it.

Honestly, neither of these pictures comes anywhere near doing the poor tree justice.

Kimberlina I just love your little nook that the tree is in. It's pretty there in front of the windows.

Amy and Kimberly, I love your trees.
The boys finally talked me into putting ours up. They are currently working on putting the decorations on it. Yes, I let them decorate it their way. So maybe this evening it will be ready.~*Michelle*~

My Parlor Tree
Here is tree number two.
I still can't get a good picture. I don't know if it is the camera or the lighting or what, but most of the detail is missing in these picutes. I promise the trees don't look garish like they are coming across.
I did get a little better oneof the first tree, but maybe later tonight I am going to start another thread showing all my holiday decorating and I will post it there.

Great trees everyone. As soon as I charge the batteries for the digital camera I'll take some.
