Our Christmas Trees for 2014........
Tree # 1
This is the first tree I do since this one stays up year round.
It holds my Santa collection which is appropriate since it stands there by the Santa Wall of paintings.
Tree # 2
The Angel Tree
It stands on an antique sewing machine in the foyer and always holds my collection of angels.
Tree # 3
My newest tree stands majestic in the living room and holds all sorts of special ornaments from vintage gold ones to those I have hand painted over the years.
Tree # 4
The Porch Tree WAS my living room tree!
No ornaments on this one - just white lights and wide mesh ribbon.
The 'packages' under the tree are covered with Christmas t shirts.
Tree # 5
The Children's Tree is in the kitchen and holds the special ornaments from my children's childhoods as well as the ones Summer has given me over the years. Someday I will give these back to HER. Someday in the distant future........
Tree # 6
Just a plain little tree that sits between the washer and dryer.
Tree # 7
While this picture does not do it justice - it IS one of my favorite trees.
It's mostly red and features a cardinal collection Summer started me on as well as sequined poinsettias, 'ice' sculptures and clear glass ornaments.
This one is in the dining room.
Tree # 8
Another Children's Tree sits in the sewing room.
Tree # 9
A tiny tree for the corner of the sewing room -
this sits on the edge of Lucy's kennel.
Tree # 10
The Snowman Tree is in the gazebo.
Tree # 11
Another tiny tree that sits high on a cupboard in Louis Dean's bathroom.
Tree # 12
The hall has this tiny tree which USED to live in one of the bathrooms.
The wine scented candles are in tiny goblets.
Tree # 13
Another tree that stays up year round and is decorated for the seasons.
It is in our bedroom.
Tree # 14
Our guest room tree. I think Maddie enjoys looking at this one from her daytime spot on the bed.
That's the trees for this year!!
I do have one more tiny tree by the kitchen pond but it just has lights on it.
While I took pictures, made a Christmas Food run to the grocery store and wrapped gifts -
Louis Dean was making cinnamon rolls!
He does love to bake!!!!
He started at 11:30 this morning and we finished packaging them all up at 7:00 this evening.
He put in a long baking day!
My kitchen is a wreck!
The counters were smeared with so much butter and flour that it's hard to get them CLEAN!!
I run my hand across them and they STILL feel gritty!
I shall work on them some more in the morning and put everything to rights in there.
But for now, I'm going to have one of those rolls with a glass of milk before going to bed!
