Sunday Trees – 267
…thanks Becca for hosting Sunday Trees
This year I didn’t start decorating my tree until Christmas Eve and thankfully my daughters helped me begin the process. I love doing the tree but I don’t like doing it on my own. With my husband being so sick the last few weeks I never found the time or energy to start hauling out the lights and the decorations. Earlier in the week I did bring the tree inside, sawed off bottom, trimmed the lower branches and placed it in the tree stand. That night I didn’t get to bed till 2:30. Not a good thing, especially on a school night.
Once the decorating process started it was enjoyable and I continued putting on a few more decorations the next day. Each year my tree gets smaller and the need for a lot of ornaments also gets smaller. Sometimes I think less is more. Here is the finished product.

These whimsical Santa trees were made by me many years ago but they continue to be some of my favourite decorations. Do you have a favourite in your home?
