This year with all the surgeries and health issues in our house, we voted against getting a Christmas tree. Past memories of shopping for a tree, picking out the right one, hauling it home, fighting about if it's straight or not, cleaning up needles, and finally decorating the tree, are dear. The holiday is over and I'm still sad we didn't continue our tradition for the last 11 years. A part of me is happy neither of the "booted -foot members" of our family had to figure out a way to crawl into the tree to water it or more importantly today: haul it off. As for 2010 I'll remember this Christmas as the treeless year~
