Pet participation at Christmas






Boy did we have fun!!

More from George




A couple more of the tree....

Thanks to George



Flicking through photos with my daughter George, little did I know she had taken her own Christmas photos on the day we put the tree up. And being a much better photographer than me, she took a decent few. Here's the view past the customary mince pies and eggnog that we enjoy as we decorate and admire our handiwork and the "magicalness" of a twinkling tree. It is without a doubt one of my all time favourite things...a sparkly tree at night.

Decorations




Decorations



Christmas cake



Little Birdie



This is one of a set of 2 I bought at Ikea. The photo doesn't do it justice. I love them they are a delicate tin very scandinavian which is a style I love.

Soft spot for bunnies



Another bunny - I have a set of six of these little wooden treasures.

So here is where I started trying to take a photo of my tree that did it justice?

Christmas decs



I've just tried to upload imags of my christmas tree decorations but it won't work. I can only do one tonight. So here's the first in a series...perhaps? I don't know we'll see what the computer will let me do tomorrow?

Maya's quilt





These photos aren't great but you get the gist...my latest finished quilt for my niece Maya. Just the binding to finish on her big sister's quilt and I can do a 'ta dah' on it as well.....
