This was our first Christmas tree - circa 1981 or 82 (Lisa?). We had to hide it my sister's bedroom so that my grandmother wouldn't see it, and so the cats wouldn't eat (and then poop) tinsel. Even the little Star of David wouldn't have made her any happier about our decision to try out this "tree" thing.It's funny to see Rappaport's wrapping paper - and even some Paper Moon (whatever happened to that company? They made the BEST paper products!)
Oh, and that vase to the left? Let's just say we were a liberal (or maybe "parentally clueless"?) household... and for any future employers who may see this photo, just remember that it was taken about 30 years ago! See the 8-track tapes to the right? They were probably "TV Theme Songs of the 70's" and "A Jackson 5 Christmas".
Yeah, we knew how to celebrate the holidays- with or without that vase.

I still have that silver table on the left in my living room. And I still have a scar on my knee from running into it one too many times. Not sure whatever happened to the vase though. You probably took it to your apartment in Lincoln Towers.
No way, man... you probably left it at college... ahhhh, they just don't make vases like that anymore.
