Deck The Halls

We finally got our tree up! When all the kids were home the tree went up the day after Thanksgiving. Now that is just the 3 of us, it is harder to recruit the necessary laborers to do the tree and decorating.

Our tree is a nice Little 3' artificial tree. I like it a lot because it is easy to decorate and stands on a table in our little apartment quite nicely. I put bunches of ornaments on it, so it looks nice. It would be better if there were any gifts under that tree--but that isn't our way, so we might put up a few gifts, but we will be sending money to the moms and only Pig will be getting any gifts sent, and that will be soon--therefore no gifts, etc.

Additionally, I bought some cheap Christmas material for a tablecloth, I have some Christmas napkins and fingertip towels so the inside of the house will have a bit of Christmas color.

Do wish some of the kids could come home, but that isn't going to happen, so we just have to deal with it. I did tell the Bishop that we would love to have company for Christmas Dinner if there is someone in the ward that has no place to go or no one to celebrate with.

Merry Christmas
