First fake tree ever!

In Reply to: Is your Tree up? - Real or Fake?
I put it up last night and I have to say, it's quite impressive! Lots of lights, nice shape, easy to put together and even has a remote control to switch the lights on and off. I miss the smell of a real tree but not the mess.

Fake tree or real tree? Big or small?...sm
How about one of those old Evergleam aluminum trees with a color wheel? Wish mommy hadn't gotten rid of ours, darn it.

On Good Morning America, they stated when the little girl was asked why she was crying, she stated she just liked Sanjaya.I also saw her crying for a few others, but don't remember names of them.
On a personal note, I do think he did better last night, but IMO he is not good enough to stay. There are far better others, and even some that are already gone!

fake since - sm
Christmas in ND in 1992 and cats not staying out of the tree no matter what, drinking all the water, chewing on the needles. Went to fake and up to 9 feet tall now and really no problems at all even if there is a kitten at Christmas time. Such a difference at our house going from real to fake. Plus, no zillion needs to clean up. I do miss the fragrance, but it was either the cats or the real tree and the cats won! :-)

fake, little, and up on a table, bought when we were broke, now not sure if we should go back to real.
Fake
I'm allergic so real is not an option. We have a big one but bought a thinner one last year. They are both pretty tall though. It just took up so much room in our living room. We were tired or rearranging the furniture around the xmas tree. The new one rotates so you can see all the ornaments!

These are fake. sm...
According to www.truthorfiction.com, these are frames clipped from a YouTube video of an episode of "Lost" and posted online.
ToF is a way to back up what Snopes says and vise-versa.
I agree with the poster below, it IS very sad that somebody would do this.
Up. Fake but gorgeous! lol (we think so at least!)

Best fake tan products?
Does anyone have a good experience with any of the fake tanning products out there? I want something easy to apply that looks as natural as it can be out of the bottle. Thanks so much!
Real or fake? Big or little?
Christmas tree preference?
It was never long in the first place. It was all fake! nm

Now there's a rumor about that little girl being a fake.
I would hate to think that someone would ask a little kid to do something like that. Seems unlikely, but they did focus on her an awful lot. Thoughts?
It's not fake. Other people in Savannah had

Fake, skinny. Don't have much space...sm
but I didn't want table size tree. Got it last year and was really amazed at how pretty it turned out.
I saw this video yesterday but to me it looks fake and set up. NM

Fake for the past 3 years
I love it. Lights came attached and are remote control, no untangling of lights! Not to mention I bought it on sale 3 years ago for $99 so it's already more than paid for itself. I miss the smell of a real tree but not the mess and constant watering and picking up needles, trying to keep my animals from drinking out of the water in the base, etc. :)
I think the boy's teeth look terrific, not fake
at all. I know that when my son first got his braces off it was very, very strange. I called him Willie Wonka for a few days. They were just sooo perfect it was kinda freaky, but the strangeness wore off after a few days. Does your son like how they turned out?
I would fake a heart attack before I put myself into that situation. Don't let me get sm
started on in-laws. I can't stand mine either. Ohh, it's bad. Hey, at least you have 1 who is a nuisance - I have 3! All DH's sisters...We are going to a friends (REAL friends) for Thanksgiving this year. My DH finally smartened up to their nonsense and really don't want to be around them either, thankfully. Good luck. My heart goes out to you because I know how you feel. There will be many on this board who will tell you to "go, put a smile on your face," and obviously they've never been where you and I have been. Good luck in whatever you do and know that you are NOT alone. I can't stand evil, hateful, jealous, condescending, rude people one bit. My life is too precious to deal with mess like that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I knnow - it makes you feel like such a fake (sm)
When you go to church and your husband puts his arm around you in front of everyone and they all think he's so great and that you are such a nice happy family. And if I ever say anything about things not being great to anyone at church they act like I am just being a bad wife. However, I have not talked to the pastor, which now that you mention it, is probably what I should do right away.
Fake, but full-sized for the first time
in years.
With so many family members with terrible allergies to real trees (or the spray used on them), it's safer for me to have fake. Plus it might be less tempting to the boys to lift a leg on. We'll see.
Fake accents and funny voices
That is what I've had all day. I'm tempted to type their reports in wingding and send it back to them like that.
Heck no! Finally had to get a fake one due to hub's allergies, but it is a beauty once it's up

I live in the south. Her accent sounds really put on and fake to me, BUT
I actually do think she is a neat lady. No, I do not eat the types of things she cooks. Brother, none of it is one bit healthy! Fried everything and pounds of butter in everything. Yes, it tastes great I am sure, but who can afford those calories on a regular basis?
she was referring to fake image....not the music itself...why do you feel

Is your Tree up?
My Christmas tree won't go up till way closer to Christmas. We always get a real one. I know some people love to put theirs up right after Thanksgiving day! Some of us wait it out a bit longer.
When do you put your tree up?
Real or Fake?
X-mas tree
We put up tree 2-3 weeks before Xmas. Kids are 17 and 15 now and don't get as excited about it anymore. Last year, DD's friend who is Jewish helped decorate. She had so much fun because she has never done it before that it made it fun for all of us again.
And you know, the tree and the egg nog
Had LOTS to do with it :)... you can turn even the crabbiest HumBug scrooge into a rum-drinkin, holiday singin fool! And I appreciate that tons....:) Thanks.

Our Tree
It's way too small for the space, but we got it when we were in a smaller house with lower ceilings. I still like it though. Took this before I got all the presents wrapped.

Real Tree
We just put our tree up today. A 10 footer that we paid $35 for which I thought was a great deal. We used to have an artificial tree until our cat started eating the needles (she won't touch the real needles). She got really sick (the needles stayed in her stomach) and she had to have an emergency operation. No more artificial tree from then on.
Real tree
I'll never do fake.

not bought, but hunted for; we love the smell of cedar throughout the house!

I am interested in buying a home. The banks here want at last 20% down. I am just wondering what other options I have.
The Education of Little Tree (sm)
I don't watch TV much, but found on a Google search and on Amazon

Education of Little Tree?
I did not see the View, but I do own this book and loved it. It supposedly was an autobiography by Forest Carter, but turns out he made the whole thing up, which ended up being a really disappointed me as I found the characters so real. I live in the mountains of WNC and am part Cherokee. Good to hear that your kids are into tribal life.
prelit tree
I agree with the others, I love mine and will never, ever have an old tree again. We keep ours in the garage and have for the last 2 years, and it still works!
Artificial tree
My MIL has a table top artificial tree that she decorated around 10 years ago. At the end of each holiday season, she covers it with a sheet and puts in the back of the closet. I don't know if the lights even work anymore or if she changed them at some point. It is just really funny every year when we get it out of the closet, take off the sheet, and voila! grammy is ready for another xmas.
Our tree was not prelit but we don't take
the lights off now that they are on. We put up about 5 trees, all different sizes and my DH just puts them in the back of a pick up (without decorations) and puts them in a storage unit.
