This year just one, but I usually put up 2 or 3 (the others being smaller trees or mini trees).

What if I don't get a tree, but do celebrate Christmas?

Well, that's just crazy! laugh

(actually, I originally planned but to include that option, but bumped it for Festivus)

(and, don't worry, go ahead and choose option 6 - I'm sure nobody will know it was you)

I have six daughters so...

the main one is in the living room and is real.

the one in the basement is for the two oldest.

one of the oldest also has another tree in her room.

the third daughter has one in her room.

the youngest three have one in their room.

Oh yeah, and there is one in the playhouse (which also has a heater, flat screen TV, DVD player, and a faux fireplace for Santa to come down)!

I'd like to congratulate BoBo on an artfully constructed and very enjoyable pole poll.

We actually have two trees up but likea fool I was so excited to have at this pole poll that I clicked "1" instead. Ugh!

Somewhere in the middle
Only three this year, one in the living room with the train going around it. Then one in each of the kids rooms.

we have one normal size tree, but there are several small trees (18" or smaller) that are decorative ornaments throughout the house, so I picked more than 3...

Our boys always had something. They decorated with everything they ever got. Yesterday we went to the one son's house. First one together for them. The mix of his and her's was - um - interesting to say the least.

No tree this year, but I did help Mom decorate hers so I'd feel a little more cheery. I have lots of decorations up, though.

No tree for us. I was afraid the puppy would eat part of it. We did, however, put up Christmas lights outside.

My bad on not including an option for celebrate but no tree frown

I guess the next question is: Real or Fake?

Of our three trees, one is real (and it's spectacular! grin )

Thanks, Pal!

So, it occured to us that our newer dog Max probably wasn't around Christmas trees in his former homes because he keeps wanting to "mark" it. He sees it as a tree (and in his mind I'd imagine he's wondering how it grew inside) and not the decoration is it. At least he's not jumping up in this.
