♪♪oh Christmas tree ♪♪



♪ O Christmas tree ♪ O Christmas tree ♪
How lovely are your branches.

Tree is done.. I think thats the end of my decorating. Gifts are all bought and wrapped.. just need to pic up movie passes for my nephews and a gift cert for a nice restaurant for my inlaws. Well, I do still have a couple gifts to finish and I have to finish that elf order.. but by saturday I plan on being done.. well.... then I suppose I should bake something. There is so much work involved in Christmas. I wonder what God thinks of all of this.. I dont think he meant for it to be this way!

Next post hopefully will be to show you the ornie swaps.. elf swaps... and altered doll swap! Have a sweet night!

    The tree is so beautiful.

    I agree with you God did not intend for CHRISTmas to be this way,but as long as we give him first place and remember it is ALL about HIM I think he would want us to celebrate. So many good acts of kindness are done during CHRISTmas time. Have a great weekend and save me some of your baked goods. I have been making candy and it is too good...m.

    Your tree is so warm and happy and beautiful, Viv! And I have NOT stopped smiling over those lil' snowman heads you have tucked into greenery and darling elves you have in all SORTS of unexpected places! Your lovely, playful spirit SHINES throughout your house! It just makes me HAPPY. P.S. How are the kitties behaving with all the new goodies to explore?

    Looks lovely! I think God would be okay with it if we were also being swell people and remembering and serving Him and others at the same time ;)

    Viv, your tree looks beautiful. Wow, you even have garland...and all your presents are wrapped! You have been one busy lady. I let our boys decorate the tree this year...very hard for a control freak like me to not direct them where they should be placed. It's a little cooky looking but I didn't change a thing. They are growing up so fast, I just want to cherish these times.
    BTW...Come on over and enter my giveaway...Sweet Pink Christmas.
    Hugs,
    Suze
