Happy Holidays

Merry Christmas

Happy Hanukkah

Happy & Healthy New Year!!!!

Busy time of the year for all, i imagine. I know it's been crazy for me!

Not much time to read at all :(

But, more time to spend with the family, and that goes a long way.

For the past few weeks we have decorated the entire house-inside & out. The kids each got to decorate their own trees. A few years back I bought each of them a small 3 ft tree so they could each have one for their own rooms and add whatever they wanted to them.

I was secretly hoping they would then let Mom decorate the big tree all on her own. You see, I am OCD when it comes to decorating the tree. Ornaments, lights, etc have to be perfectly placed and co-ordinated or I end up having panic attacks (not really, but I try to convince the kids of this)

Every year I have a theme for my tree. usually it's a color theme. Back in 2009, our tree stood 9 ft tall,  it was in a stand that couldn't hold it and it fell over on Christmas eve. I lost many of my favorite ornaments that year. It has taken me 2 years but I have replaced what I could of those blue ornaments and now the tree has my favorite color theme again.

BLUE/ ICICLE

To celebrate my favorite theme this year I entered my tree into a contest being held by the Tree Farm where we order ours from every year.

YES! I did say order, every year for the past 10 years or so, we order our fralsam tree from

 Weir Tree Farms, LLC in Colebrook NH.

They cut our tree & within 24 hrs, box it up & send it to us via Fed Ex

(yup! Fed Ex delivers our tree)

So now I am campaigning for votes on my tree.

The contest ends at 5pm Friday 12/23.
