Christmas tree

 Can’t wait to put our new tree up. We always do it the day after Thanksgiving. This new tree is unlit. It never occurred to me eight years ago when we got our last (pre-lit) tree that at some point those lights would start going out. Last year one of the rows went out and it took some major covering to hide the burned out lights and spread out the good ones evenly. We started to just take the lights off the branches after Christmas, but that got old quickly. They were so tightly wrapped around each branch. The new tree cost less than half of what our previous tree did. Now we have light options. Probably going to go with some multi-color LED lights. I have a couple of all-blue rows of LED lights for the living room window. They look great, but I prefer multi-color for a tree (although blue lights on a  white tree are very nice).
