At the old house we lived in we had a real tree most of the time. According to my mom Christmas isn't Christmas without a real tree. Wrong... see she and I were at odds because I always preferred a fake tree. Less hassle and easier to clean up after taking it down!
My reasons were this... She would keep the real tree up until all of the needles fell off... ALL of them! Guess who had to clean it up?? That's right ME! So, we would bicker about whether we had a real tree or fake one. I will admit that I did win a few times. lol
While signing the lease for the townhouse we were given some news that literally cut the tree decision out. No REAL trees are allowed to be put up. I was overjoyed and well... mum was not.
No more bickering about what tree to get. My sister gave us one of hers and it's currently sitting up in the living room. It was literally never taken down from when we first moved in. lol It's been up for two years.
I also have an awkward tree up in my bedroom that stays up year-round. At night I'll turn the lights off and watch a show on Netflix with just the tree lights glowing.
