Joanna and Deka came over this evening to help me decorate my Christmas tree.
The little corner of my living room looks quite festive now.
My decorations so do not have a cohesive theme or a colour scheme. Nor do I own any Christmas balls. Joanna and I noticed this fact, as we were hanging the decorations. I have tin, wood, glass, felt, ceramic, pewter, pipe cleaner, flat, shaped, hand made, home made, and made in China by the millions.... But no standard round glass balls.
Oh well. I love my decorations. Each and every one has a memory of a person, a place, an event or a year attached to it.
There are ornaments from Mum and Dad, Jane, Barb, Jen and Taylor, Andrea, Sean, Noah and Logan, Narelle, Justin, Dale and Liam, Susan, Patti and Shaun and Kelly. They come from all over the world - Australia, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Disney World, Disneyland, Alaska, Lake Louise, New Mexico, Spain, Germany, Norway.....
I want to leave my tree up all year round.
Yep, it's missing a tree topper. I don't have one. Carlea and Andreas are going to see if they can find me one in Germany when they go at Christmas. Keep your fingers crossed.
