Well everyone likes it different. We do a collected hodge podge of ornaments & whichever lights we feel like. Some years its white, some its colored.

LOL! Pollyanna. Lovely tree ides!
See, I seriously need to get a sense of humor, and take a ribbing, and not be so sensitive.
I hadn't really thought about "color lights vs. white lights" before and had no idea people were so passionate about it. I like them both but I love decorating. Though I have to admit I'm prejudice against having ornaments, lights, ribbons and wrapping paper all blue. I'm bias because every Christmas as a child everything was blue and it felt very depressing and not very Christmas like at all. I don't mind if there is blue blended in here and there but not to dominate the theme.PGY4 Nephrology Fellow

Growing up my grandmother never let us decorate a tree. We always has big holiday parties so someone always came in and decorated it for her. Ryan calls me the tree dictator because I am the same except no designer just me. But I don't let him pick or had ornaments.
Hmmm maybe I am the tree dictator. Lol

Well DH's grandmother gets us an ornament each year for the boys' ages. This year we got a few Alvin and the Chipmunks that the boys chose and a football ornament. I guess your "point" for a Christmas tree may be a little different from mine and that's OK. Don't know how this got quite so serious.Sandy

Mines fake but ONLY because I'm too poor to buy a real one and I inherited the one I have from my grandma (yay free, boo dead grandma >.<).
B- head deep in the tree trying to get ALL the lights to work and the finished productMy great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return. ~Maya Angelou
