    I'm not going to post ours. It's 1/15th of the size of yours:(

    So is mine, but I will post it when I set it up. My concern is that is not nearly as classy! :oops:

    It’s not about size, it’s about happiness! I feel a bit sad that although mines looking ‘prettier’ than it ever has, it’s missing the home made decorations that make it so special when the kids are small.

    You can still see a couple down the bottom but the kids are getting big and not bringing them home from school anymore. :(

    A bit messy after my daughter’s sleepover birthday party last night.

    @Paul@PFI / @BMT Tax Depreciation is the installation of a Christmas tree & lights at an ip a temporary structure and deductible in the year of the expense or so I have to depreciate it over the life of the tree?

    Now look what you’ve done Jess you’ve given everyone Christmas tree envy.

    Kids do ours, they put it up, they take it down I just pay for all the crap they put underneath it.

    Coming soon - not up yet.

    We have 2 new kittens this year so this is going to be interesting

    My daughter did ours too - I just do the lights so they’re not a nightmare to take down again!

    We have two,
    One in the front window (my Wife's tree) & a smaller one down in the rear living room (which is the kids tree).

    I have nothing to do with either,
    As they get assembled / decorated I disappear outside in the shed. That way I cannot be blamed for either breaking anything or putting decorations in the wrong spot.
    It works out well for everyone concerned!

    I love how the colours all fit together.

    I attended our tenant's annual Christmas BBQ.

    The tree was all set up for the bonfire.
