We have had to cater for a function each weekend over the last few weeks so there had been no time to decorate the house for Christmas. I spent any spare moments writing and posting cards as getting them posted in time was my priority.
However we had a free weekend this week so it was time to swing into action. Yesterday morning we went out and bought a tree and in the afternoon we put the decorations up and I decorated the tree.
I am really pleased with it as it was reasonably priced and is a traditional (drop the needles) tree which we prefer because of the narrower shape.

And again
At last I feel we are almost ready for Christmas. I just have a little more present buying to do and then wrapping and then lastly it will be the food shopping.
On different days we will be having both sides of the family over with assorted grandchildren, for the full Christmas dinner, so it will be a busy time but it will be fun.

Lovely tree!!! 🙂 xx
Thank you. xx
Very nice.
Thank you. I was pleased with the shape as it doesn’t look too cramped. I also like that the low branches are so low that they hide the stand.
Soooo pretty. We put our tree up outside this year as our house is just too small.
And in the front yard, I have a big blow up display of Santa in his sleigh and he’s being pull by, wait for it…… CHICKENS!!!
Oh, that is hilarious! I would love to see that, so funny.
