Trimming the Christmas Tree

Once we got the Christmas tree home from the Knights of Columbus tree farm, we realized that they did not trim the bottom enough to meet our needs.  It would not fit on the tree stand, and then there were low hanging branches that would prevent the girls from seeing the train under the tree.  I remembered the hacksaw I bought a couple of years ago was in the shed, so to work I went.  It ended up being a very nice tree when we were done!
