So, when we packed our things to move to Escalante, I didn't think that we would be down here for Christmas so I decided to put all of our Christmas stuff in storage. We were debating on even getting a tree because everything is up in the air right now as to where we are going to be. Luckily, some good friends went and cut one down for us while they were cutting theirs and we rigged it up without a tree stand.
The kids wanted to string popcorn and put it on the tree, but they got bored with it real quick and we ended up with one strand long enough to go around the tree once.
After wrapping the bucket with wrapping paper, buying a few strands of lights, using a little glitter on some paper for our star, and some old canning lids to make ornaments, and cutting out some paper stars, it turn out half way decent. We definitely have made many memories down here that we will alway remember.

That is one Christmas Tree they will remember. It's a way cute impromptu tree.
