:: do you keep it real?

So tell me.....do you keep it real?
Or do you Fake it?
This is the question I'm asking myself this year. We've always had a large real tree, don't you just love the smell of a live tree....I sure do.
What I don't like is having to water it every day, ruined floors from a leaky stand, and crazy little black bugs for the whole month of December.
Yes, all of these things have happened to us over our years of real Christmas tree use.
So, call me crazy but I'm really entertaining the thought of a fake tree this year. I want the most realistic pre-lit tree, and I think it would make me happy to put up my tree Thanksgiving weekend and leave it up until after New Years with no worries of a fire hazard.
The tree above looks pretty amazing to me, can you tell it isn't real?
Yep, I think it's decided....
I'm gonna FAKE IT this year, and many more to come.
