We have an artificial tree.  When the kids were young, we did go to a tree farm to cut our own.
Maybe we will do that when the grandson gets older....

We generally get two trees. We get a nine foot tree for our front room and than we get a potted live tree that stands about three feet tall. Typically these are bought the day after Thanksgiving and decorate both trees the Sunday after Thanksgiving which gives us a whole month to enjoy the fresh pine smell. We trim the trees and use the parts that have been trimmed off to make a wreath for the front door. We take the decorations down December thirtieth and take the nine foot tree to a recycling area in the neighborhood or cut it up and use it in our fire pit through out the year.. In May we replant the potted tree somewhere in our yard or the neighborhood.  This year I have a spot picked out in our front yard, where we lost a fruit tree, for the potted tree. We try to provide a greener world.

Now that we are down to my two grown sons and myself - we just have a small tabletop tree.  It is big enough for us I just can't imagine not having anything.  Speaking of Christmas this is the first year in forever I have all my shopping done.  Just buy for my two sons but its done none-the-less.  Shop online because I have such a hard time getting around, got them some cool presents just waiting for them to ship in yay

Since it's only my hubby and I, we dont get a tree.  Normally we spend Xmas with at my parents place so they get a tree.

I use a coconut tree. sometimes with fruits and sometimes without. When I do have fruits on them, it's the most beautiful christmas tree ever. But you have to have lots and tons of presents in order to utilize this type of tree.

We have an artificial tree. I don't know how long my parents have had it but it's been there since I was baby at least. It's about 4 feet tall. We have to put it up on a table because the dogs think that the ornaments are toys.

My central decoration is  my manger . I have a couple of ornament trees and afresh wreath for my door :turkey: :peace: :wave:

We get a real tree which is great until after Christmas and the needles start falling off.
