Super cool! And is that a Pascal candle?!

It's just a stuffed Pascal that I draped battery operated lights over him and Mickey. Looking back at the picture I can see how it would look like a candle though laugh

I love all the Disney ornaments on your tree! I need to get to building my collection.

I hit the black friday sale for the shoes and the sketchbook ornaments, but I found the ear hats on ebay last year for $100 for a set of 12! Sure beats $22 each at Disneystore.com! Check ebay after Christmas when the demand for things like ornaments drops.

We just finished decorating our tree last night. Below are two photos, one at night with the lights on, one during the day with a cat and kitten playing underneath.

20-some years ago, when we lived in another state and in a larger house, we had room in both the family room and living room for Christmas trees, and then I got the bright idea of putting up trees all over the house. Then we moved to a smaller house and we only have room for one tree. I now have a themed set of ornaments in white and gold, another themed set in blue and silver, and the hodge-podge set with colorful lights and ornaments that I've collected for the last 40 years. This one is my favorite because of all the memories and especially all the cat ornaments. I think I need to sell or give away the themed ornament sets and stick with the colorful ornaments because that is the tree that makes me happiest.

I like that tree topper. We got one this year that is similar, but silver. Beautiful!

I like the kitties under the tree best of all! muchlove

My cats LOVE the trees in my house - they love it when the lights are on so the can cuddle up on the tree skirt underneath it. I leave the lights on just for them at night. I am a total pushover for cats.

YAY!!! I got 2 new trees this week. Another 7 foot, this one is a full one (my 7 foot now is skinny) and a 5 foot fiber optic. We were cleaning my granny's house and she MADE me take them against my will... LOL ok not really!

Now I dread taking them all down, not that it bothers me, I just love having them up and on!

Hope you all had a Merry Christmas.

muchlove

Random memories

One year long ago I lived in a tiny little apartment and couldn't really fit a Christmas tree - or maybe I was just too lazy, I don't really remember. Anyhow, I had a silk ficus tree so I decorated it instead with white lights and crystal Disney ornaments, I loved it so much I left it that way all year long. muchlove My mother had a fit.

ha ha ha that is awesome. I think i could leave up my small tree in the kitchen and decorate it for the appropriate season. But I think Joe would strangle me waiting

I did the same thing with a ficus tree and some white lights Kristen! I say if it makes us happy we keep em up. I especially like the lights in the cold winter months. mickey
