Here are photos of my 4 ft. tree and Nativity I took at 10:00 AM this morning after decorating at 4:00 AM. The photos were taken with my cellphone which I wasn't happy with but I thought I'd post them anyway. The Nativity figures are 8 inches tall. You can click on them if you care to see them full view
Trimming The Tree
It's that time again
Time to trim the tree
Boxes of many decorations
Means a lot of work for me
Tree is up with colored lights
Ready for the decorations
Make it pretty and inviting
For my friends and relations
And to celebrate Christ's birth
Beneath the tree the nativity
With angels hanging high above
The season's reason for you see
Light the candles in the window
Hang a wreath upon the door
Then stand back and look around
As the lights and candles glow
Now work is done and boxes empty
Put away until the new year
Just sit back and relax
Enjoy a glass of eggnog cheer

Well dear friends, until next time, have a day of blessings.
Beautiful Toni...and I love your new look here on the blog too. Yes, we go through that as well...my husband is the biggest kid around, smiles.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day friend, looks like rain here in western NY is on tap for the day.
I need motivation most days lately. Your tree and Nativity are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteVery nice Toni. I'll be there to see in on Monday.
ReplyDeleteSo happy you put up the little tree and the nativity. They will bring you joy all season long! Merry Christmas!!
ReplyDeleteI love Christmas and I decorate the whole house! My hubby put the tree up, I do the rest. My grandkids love it and I want to make happy memories for them to. I changed over my blog. Hope you can visit. Hugs
ReplyDeleteToni, I have felt the same way in the past. I always do end up decorating and I'm glad I do. This year I was excited and eager to do it. I even decorate Mom's room although she really doesn't notice or care any longer. I love your pretty tree and the nativity scene underneath.
ReplyDeleteI think everyone goes through that when it comes to decorating or changing things around for the seasons, but the results are well worth it even just to be part of things with everyone else.
ReplyDeleteIt all looks gorgeous Toni!
I have watched the war on Christmas, which I think is very real, amp up its volume in the past few years. I would decorate just to combat that if no other reason.
And now your blog neighbors got to enjoy your tree and manger scene and read your lovely poem.
