By now most households likely have their Christmas tree up and glistening in the window.
If you and your family decided to stick with tradition and get a real tree it's important to take preventative measures to make sure your tree doesn't cause your family any grief this holiday season.
"Obvious dangers of getting a real Christmas tree is the fact that they are highly flammable," said Dan Walker, fire prevention officer, Vernon Fire Department. "People let them dry out so you want to keep them watered."
