Tree Trimming Party in Oak Park
On Sunday, December 15, we went to Barb and Steve's house to help decorate their tree. These pictures were mostly taken through their porch window, hence the glare and blurriness. This may approach the artistic in the picture on the right (or maybe it's just a bad picture).

The Star of the Show: The Tree
This year, we were too late to chop down our own tree, so this one is more perfectly-shaped than our usual tree. We also straightened it out after these pictures were taken. The picture on the right was taken only by tree light.

These are derivations of a picture Hanna tried to take of Andrea and Frank - she didn't hold the camera still, but it was an interesting design for the lights on the tree behind us. That's picture #1, but I couldn't leave bad enough alone, hence pictures #2 and #3. There are no "hi-res" versions of these - just click on the pictures for a closer look.
