These are both at night, on with a flash ,one without. You can't see many of the ornaments, but a lot are as old as I am..at least!! Anyone good with window treatments? I hate my front window Maria

Love seeing all the lovely trees. This thread has definitely made me smile! Ours is an eclectic "memory" tree also. Our kids are aged five and nine so we have many ornaments made by them and also let them pick out one or two each year to add to the tree. We also have many that have been given to us and purchased, handed down, etc. It makes for a merry mix! Every year we go get a fresh tree, either a Frasier Fir or a Blue Spruce. The past couple of years we went with Blue Spruce because the branches are sturdier and can hold the heavier ornaments better than the Frasier. But I got really cut up after doing the lights. Back to the Frasier next year! Our angel was crooked at the time: And a shot w/ our reading corner that has our advent tree in view: MY yearly ornament purchase of this year. My Dwight bobblehead. How's this for fun?! Here he is set back in the tree: This ornament looks almost just like our Havanese dog, Luke. I had to buy it: Yoda (We have a strange amount of classic Star Wars and Disney ornaments on the tree): My Mardi Gras Crawfish I've had for years: One of our LSU Ornaments: A really pretty ornament I found this year also. Just white, pearly and lovely: This is my Sweets Tree in our casual dining room. I created it last year after seeing a larger version in a store while shopping with my mother. I've always loved white trees but we always get a live tree. This is my way of having a fun, white, colorful, themed tree of my own. My DD and I had a lot of fun setting it up this year: Another shot of it in the room: My console table I did for the first time this year (On a side note - see that green tree by the red lit one? I didn't realize that my 9 y.o. DS had taken my other two trees, a shorter green one I'd put to the left of the tiered stand and a silver mirrored one I'd put by the red & green trees, and stacked them UNDER the big green one. It'd been like that for two weeks before I caught it! Little sneak!) : Oh, my DD and DS also have tabletop trees in their rooms on each of their dressers with the tiny ornaments on them just for them. It seems like every time I go in my 5 y.o.'s room, something new is hanging on there. Last night her 3" tall Wizard of Oz Tin Man was hooked on their with the hanger from a new pair of tights we opened. Inventive. I should've taken pictures of them too but didn't think about it and now they're asleep. I've been wordy. This is an enjoyable thread!

Gazania, very nice puzzle. Must have been so hard with all those kitties similar colors. I have one of lots of wild animals, so at least they are different colors. Thanks for showing the picture. You got it done pretty quick, but I guess that's why we don't have any goodies at your house! LOL! (Like we need them---hah!) Merry Christmas!

Love the window box, Bigack - so colourful and unique! Ron, one of the things I love about Christmas is the intermingling of the generations. This is a photo to treasure.
