Ahhhh....Christmas

So it is now down to less than 3 weeks until Christmas.  And for the first time in several years, I am getting excited!  Since we purchased The Hartleton House, Dearest has been working really hard to fix it up and has done a superb job!  Considering all the work he has done, I thought it only fair to try to accent that effort by doing a bit more decorating this year than I have in the past few years.


But I didn't want to get in over my head so I decided to start with the tree.  Then, if things didn't work out for the rest of my plans, at least we would have that much. 

Here are some photos of our tree....step by step.

Mission Accomplished
Now if I could just keep the cat out of it, all would be right with the world.  =)

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

~Blessings~
