So I closed it back up and took it home...where it sat until last night.<br /><br />I cannot begin to tell you how fun it was opening that gift with the whole family! I grew up on a farm, and we planted some pines in the 'back 40 that were never tended to. Every year, we'd go back there and try to find one that was filled out enough to use as our family Christmas tree, with the usual result being a more-transparent-than-not, poor-excuse-for-a-Yule-tree, can't-hide-anything-under pine pole with a couple of scraggly needles (that fell off by December 27). When I opened your box, and pulled out the 'real' tree, I was immediately transported back to the old farm house, right into the 'front-room' where no one was allowed to go, except for special occasions, like Christmas Day and Easter Sunday. The ornament is precious.<br /><br />From TBS to RP, have a wonderful and fulfilling Christmas season. Hug your friends and family a lot."</div><div><br /></div><div>Tom Cullivan</div><div>National Marketing Manager</div><div>Tremco Barrier Solutions, Inc.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7569816776539372430-104887352050322302?l=www.r-p.com%2Fblog'/></div>Jess Lanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15884794076262947975noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7569816776539372430.post-91442742742855603882007-12-17T14:33:00.000-05:002007-12-17T14:41:39.416-05:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.r-p.com/blog/uploaded_images/logan_sidney_web-769183.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://www.r-p.com/blog/uploaded_images/logan_sidney_web-769170.jpg" border="0" alt="" /><br /></a><div style="text-align: left;">This tree was sent to us by Logan and Sidney Wiese, Martha's nephew and niece.
