Photo Sunday – The Christmas Tree

The Christmas Tree

 

Every year I say I’m going to change our tree next year.

Every year I say I’m going to get a new tree. A smaller tree.

Every year I say I’m not going to spend two days putting this thing together.

But I don’t want to spend money on a new tree even though a couple of the branches of this one are literally held on with green chenille stems.

So I put it together, turn off the house lights and light the tree.

I fall in love with it and think it’s the best tree I’ve ever decorated.

But next year…

Next year I think I want more of a Handmade tree. More of my own creations.

More in keeping with what I teach, preach, and live.

More creative.

 

We’ll see.

    I had to laugh reading this because I say the same things and always end up putting up the same tree again and loving it. Your’s is so beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

    It’s lovely! We don’t do a tree anymore so I love seeing how other people decorate theirs!
