No bulbs to change!!<BR/><BR/>We decorated my in-laws' tree last night while eating pecan pie with whipped cream. Yummmm.<BR/><BR/>Hope to see a pic of your tree soon :-)Tesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15636189059910920978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12150605.post-1165794473560499052006-12-10T16:47:00.000-07:002006-12-10T16:47:00.000-07:00We have nothing in my family!

I remember spending around $70.00 every time. Now that she's out of the house, we have a small fiber-optic tree. Sounds like it wouldn't be special, but it is! I got it for my Christmas in Williamsburg, VA, so it has special memories. And now it's free! Special is what you make of it, right?Elizabeth Parkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08467967171406206358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12150605.post-1165766978742636192006-12-10T09:09:00.000-07:002006-12-10T09:09:00.000-07:00Please put a photo of your tree up here when one i...Please put a photo of your tree up here when one is available.

Plugged them in, they worked, and then used them to "sew" sheets of (oh, I can't remember what they're called) sheets of lights(?) around the handicap ramp in the front. Long and meticulous work. When I finished a little over a half-hour later I turned them on - and only 1/3 of them worked. Enough to pull the hair out. I'm not doing that this year ...Bailey Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00639029254352011915noreply@blogger.com
