Tucker had a family project in which the instructions were simply to decorate the tree using no crayons, markers, or paints. This is what we came up with. It truly was a family project. Mike came up with the idea to use branches from our evergreen tree outside, Colton retrieved the branches and woodmulch for the trunk, I ran the hot glue gun, and Tucker stuck everything on. Oh yeah, Ty slept--that was helpful!! Its hard to see, but the "ornaments" are beads we glued on. We all loved it, and it was pretty well received at school too!
