Yay! I got my tree up. And please excuse the poor photos because they are from my phone and I am doing this post at work, since I still have no internet! We got a monster of a tree this year in celebration of moving and the fact that the ceiling is so tall in the house that we needed a big tree. Here is a shot of my TV cabinet-turned-china cabinet.
The new house has a built in TV cabinet and it was easier to use that with all the wiring and stuff for the satellite, so that left me with our other cabinet to do something with. So I got Joseph to drop the top shelf down to the center and pulled out my Christmas china and did a little display. I thought it turned out ok.
And since I can't write a post without some mention of the doggies, here is Brutus and his new favorite place to stay:
He has decided that he likes it under the Christmas trees. I found his stash of toys in the skirt of the big tree when I went to water it yesterday. I guess he likes to chew up his toys in the beauty of the twinkling lights.
And last but not least, here is my little contribution to the museum this year.
I couldn't believe that the museum didn't have a nice, big tree and pretty decorations. And after going through the decorations, I knew that I couldn't let the Charlie Brown, mish-mashed tree be on display in the entryway. I'm talking old stuff that people donated after they didn't want it anymore. Ugly stuff. So for a few days this tree bothered me and bothered me just thinking about it. So, I ran down to Target and loaded up on some ornaments. Ha Ha. I'm crazy, I know! But I knew Target had some pretty blue/gold/silver ornaments that would look great in the museum, since the walls are painted a soft, light blue.
So that's about it for now with the Christmas trees. Hopefully, I can get Joseph to let me use his computer so I can upload some really pictures!!
Happy Holidays, Ya'll!
