Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree... why are you laying on the ground?


Okay so maybe I'm a little late in starting my Christmas countdown but lets start from here.

My mom and I are up in Independence, Oregon visiting my Aunt Barb and Uncle James. We got here yesterday. In the past we have proven that time spent with them is quite special and very unforgettable. They currently own four pit bulls so that alone adds to the adventure.

Now, just this morning, as I was sitting in the living room getting ready to head out, the near ten foot Christmas tree fell to the ground flinging ornaments all over. This in turn allowed for all of the water to spill from the base, and my mom and aunt are currently removing and relocating presents (and drying many of the wet ones).

Stay tuned because you never know what might happen.

Your title is classic. So did you ever figure out why the tree fell over?

Actually yes... my uncle didn't take the rubber stoppers off when he was screwing in the base, thus the tree was never held tight.
