Oh Christmas Tree!

11/26/2021

Yet another tree off the lot at the big box store. . .definitely not as fun, but we found a nice tree anyway. We sure do miss the tree farm that closed a few years ago!

We followed tradition with putting “snow” on the tree branches (when I was a kid we had tinsel):

We sprayed high. . .
We sprayed low.

Also a tradition to put a bird in a bird’s nest on the tree as the first ornament:

Rachel picked out a new bird for us ~ beautiful!

Garland, lights, and of course the star:

Dad is a great helper!

Now for the color schemed ornaments. Can you guess what are theme was this year?

There is a perfect spot for each of them.

Silver and Gold:

“That’s a lot of toys for me to play with!”. Actually Shadow and Windy never really bother the tree, but they do drink the tree water.

Mom was busy decorating the rest of the house the next couple of days:

Grandma (mom’s mom) in Heaven’s Nativity Scene (Avon).

Another nativity from Grandma in Heaven:

We are so grateful for our Savior Jesus Christ and we look forward to all the celebrations of his birth this Christmas!
