Setting up our Christmas Tree!

Wow! What a process it was to set up our tree this year... especially because I ended up doing it alone for the most part...

This year has been an exciting one because I decided to add a new color, or I should say new colors to our traditionally blue and white tree. A friend pointed out that our tree was "boring" and that inspired me to add some life to it... I picked dark purple and bright pink as the new colors and I think our tree looks amazing... It looks so much more beautiful than the past years and our house definitely looks more colorful...

This is our tree, right before starting the process...

This is right after we put all the lights...

..and this is the end result... although the picture doesn't do any justice to the new colors.. I will take another one in the day time so that colors can be differentiated...

...and this is another picture... this time with flash, so that the colors show.. again..the picture doesn't do a good job at displaying the colors, so I will post another one...
