Plan on having it down and packed away before Monday. I was hoping one of the kids would take it down, but guess its become invisible to them.
Its a 7.5 fold up pre-lit tree with plastic tips. Its really heavy, even broken into 3 pieces. Plan on getting a new one next year, going back to the style where each branch is inserted separately. I can manage one of those by myself.

He also only used blue and green bulbs (no white, clear, red, yellow, orange, etc).
I asked him about it once, it wasn't because of a sports team or school colors or national flag, it was just what he happened to like.
