Decorating the 2.7M tree

My mother declared that our six foot tree looked puny in the house here in NOLA with the tall ceilings. She granted us the 2.7M tree, which is close to 9 feet. We've set it up already as we won't be home for Thanksgiving. The kids helped put on the lights and the paltry amount of ornaments we have. Luckily, Mom is giving us some more of her ornaments.

The funny thing about this photo is that Finwe is wearing nothing on the bottom. He said his pants were bothering him. I'm wondering when the day will come that the girls yell at him to PUT ON HIS PANTS.
