All In for Christmas

Dave suggested we get the biggest tree on the lot! After looking at it, some pondering - what in the world are we thinking - should we do this? what if we can't get it in the house? We decided to go ALL IN and just get it, figure the rest out later. I thought it could go outside at the very least. Well - it's IN the house! It's monstrous! I am working on how to create a siphon so I can water it more easily. We had to get a bigger base, too, because this 9 foot + tree is about 200 lbs. Dave got it into the house single-handedly. My mom can attest - my husband is one strong guy. She likes to watch him manhandle kayaks at Lake Crescent. He makes things look so easy. I was helpful with standing the tree up without scratching the wood floors. And if I pull off the siphon trick without flooding the house, he might be mildly impressed. If the tree has a diameter of 7" what is the circumference???

    You guys are crazy. Hope you got video of getting that in the house. Can’t wait to see pics of the final product.
