Our advent activity was to decorate the tree. Still waiting for John to put the topper on it. That's his job besides getting the tree out of storage. Lona decorated her tree nice all pretty with dolls at the bottom and well then there is the boys' tree. Let's just say they get no say in the family tree decorating department.
We put up our tree on Friday but no decorations other than lights until Tuesday. After all the ornaments were up I ordered some french script wired ribbon to use as garland. I like our tree much better now. I still like it only with the lights on. It just is missing something when the lights are turned off. I had thought about getting a new tree; a 9ft tall one because we have our tree in the entry way and we have tall ceilings there but the one I found (on sale at 50% off) was still too much. I think our tree will last aboiut 10 more years or so.
