    As the kids etc are arriving Christmas Eve, MrsA & I got busy yesterday:
    Stairs
    20241205_113459.jpg
    Front door thing made instead of wreath
    20241205_144733.jpg
    And the trees
    20241205_114303.jpg
    20241205_120229.jpg

    She's really into the season, keeps adding baubles to the stairs, apparently we need new red baubles for the first tree, and a couple more sets of muti coloured lights around the house.

    I love all of this, but especially the stockings on the staircase.

      I think the tree on top of the wood stove looks so cozy.

        I like the tree that's on top of @pique 's piano. It comes in a bunch of different sizes. Our friends had one that is 6 feet tall and it looked really great.

          I like that one, too. It looks lovely on top of Marlene.

            Everyone's trees look so nice! Steve, I love how Sharon really went for it with those bows. And MA, your gold ribbon garland is so beautiful on that tree. I used to do that, too, when I had a live tree. Looking forward to seeing more of your new home.

                I don't move as quickly as some of you do....😊

                Will decorate the tree and put out the Christmas tchotchkes over the next week or so. Not sure if I'm going to schlep Tree #2 from the basement. Will see if my neighbor will help me; it's pretty heavy and I'm not too confident carrying it up the basement stairs these days.

                Tree #2 made it up from the basement. Found a bunch of burned out bulbs and replaced them. Did you know you can still buy those little incandescent bulbs with the two wires and replace the burned out ones?

                                Our first ever fake tree is up and decorated, and i have to say I'm pretty impressed. It is truly the most lifelike fake tree I have ever seen! Even better -- it was less than $150 for a 9 foot tree!
