First weekend in December ..time to put of the tree. This is my tradition although it seems a little early this year.
Pulled the stuff from the attic ( not basements here) and decided what would be usable and what needed to be trashed. After looking a the tree decided it was time to retire it and move up to a prelit. No stringing lights...where have I been????
With new prelit in hand...decorated and put in the living room. Running the AC cause it is 75 here today. Something wrong with decorating a Christmas tree with the AC on.....
Then it was time for the fireplace...why do people in South Alabama put fireplaces int hier homes. I have lived here 5 years and have never been able to lite the fireplace.
Anyway..
Love my Santa'a and NO I did not make them. The writing gene did not morp into the ART gene. Cannot not color a picture much less paint stuff. That is why I love Craft Shows!!!
Off track.....
The Santa and the tree on the end are pieces of flat wood painted...how smart. The other 2 are ceramic and one is from Walmart...hey I need something to even out the setting.
As you can see there are no gifts under the tree...me and the dog hadn't wrapped them when I took the picture. Got then wrapped but not under the tree yet....
I LOVE CHRISTMAS AND ALL THE THINGS THE SEASON STANDS FOR.....why do we have so much tolerance and forgiveness this time of year and not all the time...ya just gotta wonder

Doncha just love pre-lit?? The older I get, the more I think I'd also like pre-decorated! Then, it would be sooo easy. I suppose that's supposed to the the fun of it, but I just want it up and done so I can enjoy!
Your tree looks great - sorry about the fireplace- we had 12 incles fo snow here (nanner nanner) but it's much prettier to look at than to scrape, shovel,chip, snow-blow, slip and watch get all yucky-grey with dirt.
You can have some of mine! I'd send you some if I could - so consider your self snowed upon!

Colleen,
Didn't get your snow but got the cold. It was 76 yesterday and 32 this morning with frost on the ground that almost looks like a lite snow......all right!!!!!!!!!!
