It all
started with the GraceReclaimed Sale,
Having the
tree up was a must!!
Although a little naked,
it was a good thing, because we were overflowing and checkout ended up in the
living room! MY sweet clients were very
patient; some even strolled through the dining room and study just to get a
peek…
OK by me, they were waiting to buy stuff and I needed some “stuff” gone!
Good thing I had at least thrown up a little
Christmas,
Just not my usual, sigh!
After the
Sale, this girl was crying for some attention and my sweet little ones did a
wonderful job last weekend! What
I didn’t have the heart to tell them was she really needed more lights! Sooo, after they left I undressed her to add
some strands...
Three tries and a fit or two later (not made in USA), she was
glowing! Then I carefully redressed her
with each ornament “exactly” where Jackson & Quinn put it originally (just a
tiny white magical fib).
With a few added ribbons,
WE WERE GOOD!
Until St.
Philip suggested it was time to get our “REAL” tree. Christmas just isn’t Christmas without our
live frazier fir. Well, as the helper
said at Lowe’s, you’re kind of late! All
the 8’ were gone, but we found the perfect 10’…..a little trim later and it was
dubbed, the BEST TREE EVER by St. Philip!
Not to mention, waltzing the flocked girl to the dining room,
her new home!
Thus the magical musical waltzing trees….but
our home is always filled with music and shuffling of some kind!
The frazier
fur got a quick outfit of amber lights with white glistening mesh and a
homemade garland of old hymnal Psalms (b~love).
Cameron and Kelley came home last night for a quick visit before she heads home for the holidays. They did the honors of hanging his keepsake soldiers, now I just have to slow Garrison down
enough to add his snowman army!! And who
knows, if I’m lucky my little elves may be back for a stay and finish it off
with a few of their dad’s train collection.
So I tend to
agree with St. Philip, it probably is THE BEST TREE EVER!
Oh yeah, Speaking
of music, the perfect fun for grandbugs....Mr. Christmas~!
He conducts the music and puts on a light show
at the request of kids, young & old!
Gracefully glad the tree is trees are finally dressed! B
