Rainbow Trees - My kind of tree

In my obsessive want to categorize all types of Christmas trees, I have been trying to put titles onto things that I have never given a name before. These following trees are what I used to consider the standard tree but after growing up (and starting this website) I see that isn't necessarily true. So I will now be referring to them as Rainbow Trees.

These are the trees I have been used to having since I was a little kid. They have no color scheme. Instead, their ornaments, and lights consist of all the colors of the rainbow. I remember falling asleep underneath rainbows like these during the Christmas season. I also remember missing them when the middle of February came all too fast and it was time to take down the tree. Sigh...Here is my tribute to the Rainbow Trees:




I'm starting with this one since this is an example of how the trees from my childhood look.






With the red legs poking out at the bottom coupled with the viewpoint of the camera I can't help but think of a rocket.




Looks like the snowman celebrated Christmas with too much spiked eggnog.

Jeepers, this tree is so darn colorful it's made everything else look grey in comparison.
