This was LAST Sunday .. and the tree is yet to be decorated. Griff was a big help .. he helped with getting the tree in and then bringing in all the many, big rubbermade boxes (while DCal 'directed'!) But .. that is just about all that has been done with our Christmas decorating. We did manage to get the outside finished (thank goodness for our yard men who do my trees every year). I am just so busy with my business and struggling to keep up. Not complaining - it's all good and I appreciate all my many wonderful customers. I have also been working for a friend of mine, who has a shop here in WP .. she is keeping my busy too! Going to try to rally and get this tree done tonight.
My little pink, Lilly tree is up in my office where I am spending most of my time lately ..
And, just catching up here on my blog ..
A photo (not very good - darn Nikon coolpix, I am not at all happy with) of Bear's birthday dinner at the CC .. minus the birthday boy who dashed before the picture taking. Griff was wishing he did also ;)
My goddaughter and her Advent calendar from me ..
The cutest reindeer topiary!
Love your pink tree!!! Our tree trimming/house decorating has taken a lot longer than it should this year too! What is it about this year?? Happy Holidays!!

I recognize one of the ornaments on your 'pink' tree! :) We have a little something to put under that tree on the way soon. Just waiting for our Christmas cards to get done.
Don't feel bad about the bare Christmas tree. Ours sat empty with only lights for a few days, before Khloe and I finally broke down and decorated it without the big kids. They were just too busy with their extra curricular activities this year, and I couldn't wait any longer! I need to post some pics again soon. I did really good a few posts in a row, and even 2 videos of Miss Khloe ~ but I need to get some tree photos on there soon! Hopefully by the end of the week. I'm on my way to a funeral up north, so I'll be gone a couple of days, so it has to wait.
Take care and enjoy your Christmas Season! Can't wait to see your finished tree... I always love your decorations, and especially your pretty wrapped gifts under the tree... they are their own accessory!! :)
oxo,
Tanya

You're more decorated than we are at this point! Love your Lilly tree and the reindeer topiary. Hope you'll have a chance to slow down and enjoy the season!

Thank goodness my decorating is done! Whew....I had two fiascos with my lights and nearly lost my ever loving mind. Love the reindeer topiary. Your god daughter is adorable.
Hugs,
Kat

You still have time for decorating! We are done with ours. My kids help for a bit, and then they are done. ;) The dress you have on at the birthday dinner looks so cute on you!! Now, don't stay too busy!

Of course, I LOVE your Lilly tree! I was working on my blogroll tonight. Looking at the roll, your blog was listed as mcctypepad.com instead of mcc.typepad.com. When I tried to update the change, it's not coming through on Blogger. Ugh! I'm so technically challenged! I'm still a devoted reader of your blog anyway:)
