Fresh cut...really?

Remember that fresh cut tree that Owen picked out this year? Whether the tree, the time away from the tree, or a touch of Charlie Brown magic, one could not describe in words how quickly needles can fall off of a tree...
Unbelievable...maybe Home Depot trees aren't so bad after all. To clarify...this was taken on Dec 29th...and not mid January. We'll see what happens next year.
