A few posts back I promised pics of our tree. As has become customary, we ended up with a tree that has ‘character’ – which is just a nice way of saying we waited until way too late into the season to get one and ended up choosing from leftovers.

Come to think of it, if you step outside of things and look back in, the concept of uprooting your life and keeping a fucking dead tree in your house for a month and a half is entirely unappealing. That’s why we get one two weekends before X-mas and it’s gone the first garbage day after New Year’s. We don’t piss around.

But we took our homely leftover tree and showed it love all “A Charlie Brown Christmas” style and it rocks in its own special way. Here’s a few pics including the obligatory ‘arty farty’ stuff where you just use a shallow DOF and impress anyone who doesn’t understand photography. Enjoy.

Now gimme my presents!
