My dad was busy chopping dow nthe tree and just as Bridget asks, "Which way is this thing falling?" it fell on her. Pretty funny.

It can be sad when love one's are no longer there to enjoy it with. And it can be a very,very lonely time for some. So enjoy every minute of it.

If you yelled out Sybil, I'd answer for sure. I love the Christmas season and decorating and all of that stuff. But, still..... All I know is that I can't wait for January 1, when I'll be en route to Jamaica. Wish I could have come home for Mamma's birthday and Christmas, but looking forward to seeing you guys in January!<br /><br />Love,<br />Middle SisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-34115004114566457492010-12-22T07:53:57.544-05:002010-12-22T07:53:57.544-05:00OH, talk about funny..

I used to have one of those 8 foot, arm slicing, scar leaving, piece by blessed piece trees, which of course, I too, had to put up all by myself. Now my husband insists upon a real tree. Until this year. We have a real tree, it is already dead. There are about 10 ornaments on it. There is a fence around it, which is velcroed to the floor. The 1 year old looks at this fence and laughs at it. Right before he rips it up from the floor. There are needles all over my floor, thanks to my 3 cats scattering them everywhere (even as far back as the bathrooms!).. and did I mention that this is the ONLY tree up in my house this year. Hmmmm... there MUST be a reason, right? <br /><br />PS, I love your tree and the quirky ornaments...Lynne Mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-72567672851526671452010-12-22T07:39:43.769-05:002010-12-22T07:39:43.769-05:00I love it!

They live on the side of a mountain and it can get windy, and one year, the Baby Jesus, whom they had for some unknown reason dubbed "The baby Fred" came unplugged and blew and rolled waaaay down the hill. They giggle every time they tell the story!Meg McCormickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01226110990838922422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-55962876023547526942010-12-22T06:26:07.445-05:002010-12-22T06:26:07.445-05:00We have a 9 foot tree that is also a monster to dr...We have a 9 foot tree that is also a monster to drag up from the basement and decorate. My husband actually does the dragging but the rest is up to me. My son magically disappears when it it is time to decorate too. Every year I say this is going to be the last year I use the giant but I keep putting it up! I always enjoy it once it's done though! I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas!<br /> TriniaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-60919398530065719582010-12-22T01:21:14.726-05:002010-12-22T01:21:14.726-05:00Giggling at your wonderful sense of humor!

We dug out our little tree this year, and I must have had plenty of time on my hands one year...each light (which miraculously still works) was individually wired with a bread tie to a branch. <br />I would hang a slice of bread from the tree but the dog would eat it:))<br />Wishing for less stress and more fun for you this week CBW..it'll all be over soon!deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02462551016440715970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-77914152120799808832010-12-22T01:11:53.428-05:002010-12-22T01:11:53.428-05:00Personally I have always liked your wacky witty se...Personally I have always liked your wacky witty sense of humor and I think your tree looks great and fun.
