Now you are making me nervous about the lights, I bought the same ones for our tree and maybe should return them for the warm white. I thought the cool would look good with all our grey and blue but maybe not. I'll keep you posted! :)<br />~MichelleMichelle, All Home and Lovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14389260169050041993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5751770287902971495.post-15926275879694073282010-11-29T20:51:08.222-06:002010-11-29T20:51:08.222-06:00Wow!

I am so sorry it was a hassle but if you look back at it now, you can laugh.....hopefully! :) The tree is really beautiful and it sounds like the girls had fun and what a great memory to have spending some time with them!

I still remember the year my brother, sister and I went in search of a tree, we were teenagers and we were doing the task without mom and dad. We pulled into what we thought was the parking for the tree shop. OH NO, someone's yard and boy did we get yelled at. In our defense it was a really snowy day and it was right next to the shop parking. We had a big laugh and we will always remember that year. Isn't that the best part of Christmas, spending time with family and making memories.Alainahttp://arborhouselane.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5751770287902971495.post-15227823244664731382010-11-28T23:24:15.780-06:002010-11-28T23:24:15.780-06:00Oh man, what a story!
