"You Underestimate the Power of the Dark Side..."

The Tree is back.

Year after year, The Tree comes back to spruce up the holidays, and this year is certainly no exception. See former versions and a general recap of the story of The Tree HERE.

Gwen and I put The Tree up on the Friday after Thanksgiving. We left shortly thereafter for a week in San Diego, but since we've been back we've been lighting The Tree nightly in ritualistic fashion to help celebrate the holiday season.

This year's ornament additions include several encompassed in a Death Star Throne Room theme. There's the Emperor on his throne, a Crimson Guard, and an Imperial Shuttle (which plays the Imperial Theme at the push of a button - awesome) as well the crowning piece, a little diorama of Luke fighting Vader complete with push-button quotes.

As always, the Tree rocks and Gwen and I always enjoy putting it up, animating it, and later marveling at its splendor on a nightly basis. Hopefully the San Diego boys will be fired up to see in person next year.

In the spirit of our Tree, happy holidays to all!

And now, the pics!
