We havent had one for a many years now.

The kids are all grown and usually spend the holidays elsewhere so it just seems like a lot of hooplah.

I do miss cutting a tree like we did when i was a kid.

We always went out and got a white pine.

I remember traipsing through the snow with my dad and him chopping it down with an axe.

Now a white pine isnt a " good enough" tree..

Its gotta be a high dollar fir tree..BAH HUMBUG

I enjoy buying gifts for people but the trees a thing of the past for me

Christmases used to be about family and friends..now its just about. "Whatd ya get me??

My grandparents used to give us a silver dollar and a bag of candy.

Those were the days.......

Agree

Only " Charlie Bro8wn" type here, young cedar about 2 foot tall

Cut from the woods, with a few ornaments on it

Day after Christmas it goes into the wood stove
