Decorating the Christmas tree is a whole-family attraction every year. It usually starts relatively early in the morning to have time to take the necessary measures if something unexpected happens. Last Christmas, for example, it turned out only in the morning of December 24 that the tree would not stand firm enough in any of the bases we had so we had to do some hectic rush to find something suitable. We managed to in the end but it took quite alot of extra time, not speaking of the extra money we had to pay. Nevertheless, we purchased a really strong and big one, so that will do this year as well - hopefully.
