Charlie Brown Christmas Tree
This year we got a real Charlie Brown Christmas tree!!! My lovely roommate Kat's family chops down a huge Christmas tree every year. So Kat and her sisters chopped down a little tiny tree for us to decorate! We were so excited just like Charlie Brown and Snoopy!!! :)
Here's our tree!!! Super duper happy!!!! :D
But then our tree died.... It dried up and we couldn't revive it!!! What I later discovered is that Kat forgot to re-cut the bottom of the Christmas tree when she put it in water. So our tree completely dried up...and the needles were getting everywhere!! We tried to keep it alive, but every day it looked more sad. One day we were vacuuming and we decided to clean up the needles underneath the tree. As we moved the tree skirt intending to dump it out in the garbage, we suddenly bumped the tree. ALL of the needles fell off!!!!! Our poor, pathetic Charlie Brown tree had just gotten even sadder!!! That was the last straw--we chucked the tree 3 days before Christmas.
