Our Christmas Tree

While my American family and friends are busy getting ready for their Thanks Giving, my grandchildren are badgering me to please may we put up the Christmas Tree!

Well it is a little early to be putting up a Christmas tree, but who can deny their grandchildren such a simple request.

So today while the sun was brightly shinning and the temperature was around 12 C, I was getting our Christmas tree out of storage. With the help from our Hannah, whom is 6 1/2 and our Myles whom is 3 1/2 we brought the tree and all the ornaments upstairs.

Hannah was wanting to put the village up, well we got it upstairs but not yet in it's final place, all ornaments, houses and little people litter my living room floor. I have been collecting Christmas treasures for quite some time. ( more about that later)

For the time being Myles is just so very happy that we got all those Christmas treasures out of the basement, although his main objective was the Christmas Train. Hannah was helping to put the tree up, then she helped putting the track down.

There you have it, ours must be the first Christmas tree up. It is certainly the earliest that a Christmas tree ever graced our living room. Hannah and Myles both are trilled to have it ready for them to decorate tomorrow. For now they are happy with the Train.

I know that we will have a lot of fun getting our Christmas Tree ready, my theme this year is any thing goes and this for sure is going to be the best dressed tree in town.

O Christmas Tree

O Christmas Tree,O Christmas Tree,
How steadfast are your branches!
Your boughs are green in summer's clime
And through the snows of wintertime.
O Christmas Tree,
O Christmas Tree,
How steadfast are your branches!
