The Christmas Tree (part two)




Part two and 2 images show the difference using a flash on the camera. Mike finished the tree with a little help yesterday and now that I have looked at the pictures I see a little more adjusting might be done although in the dark with the lights it is very pretty. Smells great too, but I guess you can get a pine aroma candle and still have the smell with an artificial tree.



I consider there to be four Christmas activites I need to complete:
1. decorating 2. cards 3. shopping 4. baking

While the outside decorating isn't up to my normal standards because of the weather I am still checking it off the list and moving on to cards and shopping. Here's a look at the deck with our icy morning for you Florida friends and family that can't quite imagine.

Hey - Other than the snow-peaked mountains, I can't imagine what the snow is like either. Don't forget about your California friends and family!
After seeing the picture though, it reminds me of how cold it gets there. Brr! Tree looks great though! Can't wait to see it in person :)

I had to make your picture larger to get a sense of how nasty cold it is in Toledo...you are right we in Florida and ye in Califonia can not imagine what the cold is like any more. It is down right scary...your tree (thanks to Mike) looks wonderful.
