This a tradition we have carried out a couple times now. It started one year when Jesse and I were really really broke and couldn't afford a tree until the 23rd of December. FYI, tree lots are non-existant on the 23rd! We were so heartbroken, especially since we have another tradition of having close friends over on Christmas Eve to decorate and share in the seasonal love. We decided to construct our own and each friend drew an ornament to tape to the tree. I still think it's the coolest damn thing ever, and I was so happy to share this tradition with my kids.
Dontcha just love the chorus of ponies revelling in the beauty at the base of the tree?!

We didn't put up a tree this year either. It was hard for me because we usually decorate the tree for winter solstice and then burn the tree at summer solstice.
I bought $ store decorations and we decorated a tree that we could see from the window of the cabin. Tradition, ya just gotta do what ya gotta do!
