Also a fairly real fire hazard, as well as leaving needles everywhere that you'll find until Easter.

We went with a fake tree this year for this reason. I wanted a real one but the excessive amount of needles and the fake one looks real enough. I do miss the smell. Have to find some candles or something...

When we move and no longer have carpet I will go back to a real tree. We will probably have two, the fake one and the real one.. lol.

The next issue will be storing the damn thing...
