Wordful/Wordless Wednesday

What you see above is my ginormous Christmas Tree. This tree my hubby got me while we were out shopping last Thursday (so Carol, who cleans my house could dust without sending me into an asthma attack).

I have wanted a 12ft. tree for a long time and saw this one last year but the store wouldn’t sell them as they only had 2 for their display only. This year they did have them available for purchase which made me extremely happy.

I hadn’t planned on putting the thing up till after Thanksgiving. We typically put our tree up the Sunday after the holiday.

I was actually planning on putting it together only to check to be sure the lights worked, but once I realized how much work it was putting together there is no way it’s coming down till after Christmas.

So there it sits in my great room.

Hopefully I won’t be sick of it before the holidays are over.

PS yes, I have a fly strip hanging by the window. Log homes are notorious for having bug problems this time of year. They sneak in through the cracks. YUCK!! It drives me crazy.

    what a lovely tree!

  • Susie

    Your home is gorgeous and that tree is prefect for that spot.

  • Kelli @ Gohn Crazy

    Gorgeous! It fits your home perfectly. Our tree is coming out this weekend. If we have company for Thanksgiving I prefer to put the tree up the weekend before to get the place festive. :) If we are going somewhere else it usually waits till the weekend after.

  • Heather of the EO

    Holy tree. And you are SO on top of things! It’s beautiful. Even with a fly strip by the window :)

  • Ryanne

    That’s a huge tree, it looks great in that space. I wish I had a ceiling high enough for a tree like that, oh well, it looks wonderful and so festive.

  • Octamom

    It’s beautiful! Awesome! I bet you’ll enjoy it, even being a bit ahead of the curve!

    Blessings!

  • foreverfoldinglaundry

    Awesome!! Love the tree and LOVE your high ceilings! Lucky you to live in a real life log cabin! Can’t wait to see it with all the trimmings.

  • Steph at Problem Solvin’ Mom

    What a beautiful tree!!

    I tagged you this morning… :)

  • Mommy2Twinkies-Deb

    Kimber. You have a beautiful tree and a gorgeous house. I love it. WE have a fairly tall room to put our tree, but not that tall! It really looks lovely.

  • Live.Love.Eat

    That looks so much taller than 12ft!!!!!! We had a huge tree once and had to put it in the dining room so finally we downgraded so we can enjoy it in the living room. This one looks perfect for where you have it! And I only saw the fly trap after I enlarged the pic, AFTER you mentioned it :)

  • Wife to the Rockstar

    That is an awesome tree!!
