It is Christmas in the heart ...

It is Christmas in the heart that puts Christmas in the air.

Yep, that's Christmas lights still being used in our house. I would have taken a picture of the tree that is still up but couldn't get the lighting right. Why do we still have them up? We just never got around to taking them down. It was scheduled to be done this half term, but well, one thing lead to another... In our defense, we have 5 trees* - this is the only one still standing. Just to clarify that we're not *that* pathetic ... ok, maybe a little.

The problem is, just like the dress maker's doll, it's sort of just fitting into the room now - but the saving grace is this is a room on the top floor so it's not hurting anyone. And now it's looking so nice at night against the dark sky.

Besides, who said lights & trees were only for Christmas? ... Ok, scratch that. Who says we have to listen to them? ;-)

*5 trees are needed to hold the Hallmark ornaments Michael collects

Just noticed Charlotte's crystal's are on the window sill which we created the other day. Yes, the bread and crystals worked that day.
