THomas Brown AVID 365 day 108 12/17/11

I had to move this gigantic a** tree into my house with just me and my cousin. So my mom always get these bis tree because we have a big living room but every time she pick out a tree it to big and i don't know why, i guess she thinks we have one of those big gigantic ceiling like you see in mansions and things. So me and my cousin having fun, all day until we have to go move this big thing out of the truck. This thing was not only heavy, we had to manuever this tree into the living room which was a little tricky because it was a couch in the way. Now we have it in the house we have to move into the stand, another difficult task. Don't get me wrong big tree's are nice but they are hard to get in and hard to get out. After about a hour of trying to get it into the stand and straight and chopping some of the top off we finally got it and secured. Then as my mom starts to put the lights on it, she yells up stares for me and my cousin to come because it was tipping, so my cousin grabbed it real quick while thought real quick what can i use to keep this from falling. I ran outside real quick and got a couple of bricks to secure it down and placed them under the tree to hold it up. This enormous tree is so big it won't even stay in the stand by itself, come on now that how you know it to big. This hasn't been the first year we had to use bricks to hold up our tree, in previous years we had to use bricks before. I think my mom needs to be taken off the tree hunting duty, I'm just saying. As you can see in the picture the tree is still touching the ceiling even after we chopped some of the top off. My mom said she would be finished decorating if lights didn't blow out but she always does a wonderful job on her tree.
