When I brought Jack down from his nap, he went straight for it!.

It came in three separate sections, all wrapped up.I love that there was even a storage bag provided for the tree.. All we had to do was stick the three sections together and it was good to go.

The tree’s pre-lit and even those lighting connections went together automatically when the tree was assembled..Here it is in the middle of the room.. You can see it looked pretty great like that already, but we fluffed the branches up a little first before decorating it.One of my favorite features of the tree was the extra long cord that came with it.

We could set it up in the middle of the room and still not need an extension cord to plug it in!.And here’s the tree all decorated!

The plan was to have this done a long time ago, of course, before Jack was born.

As it turned out, I ended up decorating it mostly holding a fussy baby in one hand..Well, the reality is that we’ve been in this house for about 3.5 years now, doing DIY projects, raising kids and just generally being a pretty normal family.

All that normal family stuff can sure cause you to accumulate a whooole lots of junk.Can I get an “Amen”?.

While the main parts of our house are usually pretty tidy and presentable, we had a dark, dark secret.Well, a couple of them actually.
