So the tree is up....yes I know its still November but we're away next weekend and its the part of Christmas eldest loves most so today it went up in all its sparkly glory. It's not colour co-ordinated or very glam (and there is nothing wrong with ones that are...) it's like the tree I grew up with, bits and pieces collected each year that bring back small memories. This is a snowman eldest has chosen at some point in the last few years. I'm posting and running. We're about to curl up on the sofa and watch a dvd by the light of the Christmas tree lights.
Love the light here, we are putting ours up tomorrow. The girls will be so excited, they are just a little bit obsessed with Christmas trees currently. Getting around town takes forever
@graemestevens just as I expected...ha ha running true to form Graeme!
Made me laugh & that's no bad thing!
@newbank well it's not long in the whole frame of a year so you enjoy it ....the kids are little so pamper them! Snowman is happy to be out of the box too!
Those kinds of trees are the best and my favorite as they mean the most. We've always had a tree decorated like that and it's more special than any color coordinated thing...I think. Love this capture of the special ornament, the colors are great.
I do like this but why? The light on your main subject is subdued and the bright light behind pulls my attention away from him, yet I think it's lovely! It makes me smile ... and think of the story behind it!
We got ours up this weekend, too. My dog has started eating things off the tree...last night a candy cane and today various ornaments and lights. Ugh. Pretty lights and fun ornament.
