We decorated the house about 10 days ago. It is an Emory tradition to really decorate the house, putting away all the regular wall hangings/pictures and replace with Christmas things.
See the "Qualicum"wreath with shells from the beach? This is "Snowman Corner"
Creche made in the West Bank Jewelry tree made by Greg's father, probably over 40 years, using old costume jewelry from Bob's grandmothers, mother, mother-in-law and wife. Quite the ornate frame as well!
Our tree is a "memory"tree. We have ornaments that we have collected from many of our holidays (Mexico, Hawaii, Vancouver Island, Jasper, Cook Islands) and those that have been given to us including a 80-year bulb that belonged to Greg's grandmother, Qualicum Beach golden pear, spun glass angel from Flowers by Tamee (brought down when we celebrated Christmas in Victoria, 1986).
Dreamin' of sugar plums? The little stocking is Mocha's ornament and she is allowed to take it off the tree!
