Decoratting the tree

[gt40]

just decorating the tree, anyone else?
actually I'm enjoying a cold draft and watching my wife and kids decorate it
Hey, I did the hard part - had to wrestle it in the house and prop it up, level it and put the lights on. That's enough reason to enjoy a cold one.

Happy Holidays all

Beers are on me!

Decorated ours last weekend; an 8 footer.

LOTS of handmade and antique glass ornaments, plus a few newer ones hand-blown by yours truly using lab glass, and not a few antique lights (bubble lights, large bulbs etc.).

There are also hand-strung popcorn/cranberries, pickles and the Santa light that's been in my family since I was 1 year old. I called him 'nan-na-taus' back then

How lovely.. now your visitors can enjoy the pleasure of electrocution if they need to use the handrail and happen to have wet hands.

I think the stringing of lights has been left to me. Our house is a good deal larger than the one we were in the previous Christmas, so that means more fun for me on the roof, white knuckled. Truly though, it all becomes worth it Christmas morning when I see my kids grinning from something other than being mischievious.

lights is the only thing in my tree
