"And they all came tumbling down..."

Lifted this from my sister-in-law - I thought it is too funny not to share. Merry Christmas!!

**

You no sooner left, I sat on my couch and our HUGE (9 foot, 300 pound) Christmas tree fell over, narrowly missing me! With our family history of trees falling down (many over the years!), I would have thought the "someone" would have thought to anchor the tree to the stair railing!!!!!!!!!!

We had 24 hours of a beautiful tree and now for the next 2 1/2 wks we get to stare at a tree with strings of lights that are out of alignment, flung up ornaments and a lot fewer ornaments. Our family memory which was supposed to be the collection of ornaments for when the kids leave home is gone, they may get 5 ornaments out of their time spent at home, but the memory will always be......trees falling down!
