Twenty Years Ago – Halloween Tree

Categories: ,

On September 2, 2006, Shaun and I bought a tiny Christmas tree and spray painted it black and purple in his parents backyard.

It looked really cool! Now the purple has faded a lot, and you can see a bit more of the green through all of it, but it still looks like a spooky old tree. You couldn’t get a black tree in 2006!
We put it up in Shaun’s bedroom.
We had been working on making and collecting ornaments for a little while.

We have added a lot of ornaments and gone through several strings of lights and moved three times since we made this tree together, but we still use it every Halloween!
