After years of hauling an entire herd of lighted deer in and out of the attic, we decided to sell them last year in a garage sale. The year before Eric dumped half of them in a dumpster. We were just tired of dealing with the lights going out and them taking up space in our attic. 
We looked at many stores trying to come up with a new look for our outdoor Christmas decorations. Eric decided to make these big Christmas trees. I think they turned out really well! He made them with PVC pipe, lights and tiny hooks. The kids absolutely love them and think it's really fun to play inside the trees. 
The trees in the boys' rooms are working to distract them from our Christmas tree! They are having a great time "decorating" it with ornaments and stuffed animals. Tonight we are wrapping our first round of gifts to put under the tree. Maybe they won't notice the presents under the tree. Yeah right!
The trees look fantastic! They're beautiful and unique. Wow! Eric looks good in his bathing suit, takes care of the house and kids and can build custom made Christmas decor. He's a keeper!
ReplyDeleteThe trees do look great! I had to get rid of my deer this year too. You are a brave woman to put out wrapped presents before Christmas. I still don't do that. They wouldn't last a day in my house!
