The tree '09.....

The Tree awaits its transformation.
The glass and gold navitity scene is now displayed
on the shelf.

Home-made decorations from children nestle amongst
the branches.

Glass balls hang like spheres in outer space.



The Tree, all lit and twinkling and shiny.

From a bare balsam to a Christmas tree in two hours.
I like decorating the tree. The ornaments all mean something to each of us in our family. Some are paper, others glass, or metal and when they are hung and the lights and tinsel get to their rightful places the whole room lights up in celebration!
Such as it was this evening. A grand time it was.
Then daughter called us via Skype and I was able to show them the tree all lit up and twinkling through the web cam. It was exciting for them as they won't be having a tree at their place this year. And we are excited to have them come home.
'Nite, one and all........
