Maybe I don't miss having a live tree as much as I thought I did!

I LOVE the idea of wrapping everything up in shoe boxes!!! And with boys in the house...you probably bought at LEAST 20 pairs of shoes that year. ;-) <br /><br />Going to check out your companion blog!!

My sister&#39;s dog likes to tackle their Christmas tree and wrestle the candy canes to the ground. Because she likes to eat them. I thought that was bad until I read this...

Sap and bugs. <br /><br />Sounds...DELIGHTFUL?<br /><br />We use an artificial tree because 1) I am allergic to real trees and 2) being Pagan, I just don&#39;t have the heart to kill a real tree<br /><br />BUT...if we did use real trees, I think you would have just managed to scare me off. LOL

Wow, this has never happened to me, what luck, sap, bugs, ugh! Once we did get one with a birds nest in it and I worried that we stole some birds home, poor thing! Well, Happy new Year!

You are one crazy woman! I have the feeling that should we ever meet, I&#39;d die of laughing at the hilarity of your storytelling. Thanks for the laughs! And Merry Christmas!

Hope you had a wonderful holiday sans the sap. Sorry I haven&#39;t been around in a while. Blogging has been put on the back burner recently with all of the holiday festivities.

LOL i&#39;m crazy about each person having their own wrapping paper. I&#39;m crazy about it and with the wrapping of the presents to. LOVE me some double stick tape so you don&#39;t see tape marks ... I know I&#39;m a nut :).<br /><br />Yikes bugs not cool!

LOL - I do the &quot;marker tag&quot; as well.... drives my son nuts.... I can never find the labels for gifts when I need them. :)

Oh no! Sap AND bugs? You&#39;ve seen it all. I will never forget the year that my absolutely perfect Chrismas tree wilted (died?) a week before Christmas and we had to get ANOTHER one (oh yes we did) and decorate it all over again. I can&#39;t decide if I hated that or liked it. I do have a thing for the tree decorating...

You are a hoot. We had a real tree that drooled and offered unto us the miracle of life in the form of Critters That Make You Weep and Sneeze. Hence, the white vinyl aberration we call a tree. I so enjoyed this. Thanks.

Hope your Christmas was the merriest - despite the sap :) I&#39;m such a fan of a fresh cute tree, but definitely don&#39;t do the bug and the sap thing - it would be articial for me forever more :)<br /><br />Kristin

I think I have the same color scheme going on in my living room. And I&#39;ve been known to write directly on the packages with a Sharpie, too. Nothing wrong with that. You can get a red Sharpie.

I totally wrap people&#39;s names directly on the gifts&#39; wrapping with a sharpie... what&#39;s wrong with that?<br /><br />And artificial tress are all I can do.

Now you&#39;re making me rethink the idea of having a real Christmas tree next year since my pre-lit fake one that isn&#39;t pre-lit anymore. :)<br /><br />Poor gifts in a time-out...So sappy! :)<br /><br />Wishing you a Very Merry Christmas, my friend! :)

Oh Debbie, you&#39;ve had about as much luck with your Christmas tree as we have. One of our dogs got the wire from the tree lights wrapped round his paw and he dragged the tree across the living room! We put the tree back together again, switched on the lights and they popped! <br /><br />I hope you&#39;re having a lovely Christmas holiday and thank you for the message you left on my blog. :)
