It's beautiful! Mine only has lights. I've not got around to decorating it and at this point, I'm not sure I will....

I love the first Christmas ornament, I was looking for one, but I am sure I can find it on the internet.

Gotta love the Metallica on the TV...gets us in the holiday spirit! lol I love my forest baubles, DH gave me them as an early Christmas prezzie :)

steph to post a photo...

Do you see where the bold/italic/strike stuff is? Under the Bold there's a button for something and next to that under the Italic button there's the button to insert an image. Click it and it will display [*img*]*insert link here*[*/img*] without the stars of course. Where I put "insert link here" you insert the link to your photo. I don't think you can hotlink from facebook with the links you provided but if you right click on the picture and click "properties" and copy the whole address/URL and paste it between the [*img*]*insert link here*[*/img*] it will work. I checked it...

Here's our tree this year. I sewed a bunch of ornaments last year, and this year's addition was the tree topper shaped like our cat, Bosco. :)



There's more pressies under the tree since this photo was taken, though. And since my Christmas box from the US arrived, there's candy canes hung on it now, too!

I don't like putting presents under the tree early, but we don't stay here for Christmas, so I don't feel like it spoils the awe of coming down on Christmas morning.
