Hastily, I finished decorating my house for the holidays while I was doing my laundry. I wanted very much for a live and extra tall Christmas tree that is tailored to the size our living room but hubby was totally against live one because of fire hazard. We have had this tree for 20 years – older than our kids even! And we have accumulated ornaments of different kinds over the years. Half of them came from my MIL so they could be older than me. A few of them, the gold plated ones, were presents from a step MIL. The rest, I accumulated over time.

Here are my favorite ornaments in no particular order.

The home-made pink heart-shaped paper with pictures on the wall was also given to us by one of our dear daughters so it will always stay there.

and please don’t mind my mess on the kitchen counter. I will get to it later as I still have to do some errands and cook dinner. But, I think I may just have to buy sub for dinner as I have laundry clothes to fold and tomorrow is a hard day for me at work.
