O Christmas Tree

We were late getting our Christmas tree again this year (last Saturday).  This tree farm was the last one still open and the owner told us when we arrived that pickings were slim.
It is not Christmas for me without cutting down a real tree. We trudged around the small farm for more than an hour looking at all the available options. Usually we like a tall slender frasier fir, but we settled for short and plump this year, an old fashioned prickly tree. I think it is a douglas fir. 
Still turned out pretty nice, though I had to fill in some bare spots with artificial greenery, haha. 
See what I mean about how wide it is? My friend said it looks like a ladies hoop skirt.
