TEAM FRESH vs TEAM FAKE

Despite overwhelming results from the poll of Fake Tree vs Fresh Tree, I was amazed that a lot of people go for the Artificial Trees- Pre-lit. I mean, there are so many advantages: convenience, no dried pine needles littering the carpet, no worries about disposing the tree. I thought the major disadvantage would be lack of scent, but it was suggested that we just get a candle that smells like one. Another disadvantage is that you have to store it...and it's a huge box that takes up room! Jason and I have always loved Fresh Trees, but with lack of Time etc etc, the thought of convenience of an Artificial tree was alluring. So the verdict is in....We decided to stay with FRESH this year. The idea of going to the Christmas tree lot...to pick out a tree brings about Christmas childhood memories...it's fun to pick the tree right? (Despite the fact that Jason happened to pick the first tree he saw which ended up to be perfect anyway! Hmph!)...It smells nice, only small inconveniences of vacuuming those little pine needles that drop on the carpet...and it's beautiful. Anyway...we'll see who wins the battle next year....as the Saga continues between FRESH vs FAKE.
