Tree Tour







I joined the Christmas Tree Tour...take a look!






Here is a picture of our tree...I love it! Choosing the tree (always live! duh!) and then decorating it has got to be one of my favorite things about Christmas every year. We have beautiful ornaments...our parents were kind enough to give us lovely little beauties such as Radko, Tiffany, Gorham, Waterford and the silver collectible yearly ornament from Ross-Simon. I love mixing in the precious ornaments made by Campbell and Charlotte's sweet little hands too. We always use white lights (that Bryan does a fabulous job stringing) and the garland beads we rotate out every year. Another special addition is two American flags at the top of the tree by the star...to remember our Nation is at War and to honor our troops and our freedom. Every year we give the kids a special ornament - we have a special dinner the night or so after Thanksgiving and I wrap them up very specail... they already have quite the collection! I also try to make each of the kids their own ornament too...(we'll see how long that lasts!)Hope you enjoy a glance at our special beauty!
