Beautiful tree Christie.
I've been reading on the internet about the snow everywhere in Eurore and causing a lot of problem.
Hope you are doing ok.

Very nice looking tree Christie, thanks for sharing. I really miss the snow and a good old fashioned Christmas. The last time I had a snowy Christmas, was our last Xmas in England before moving to Australia.
I have no tree this year as we will be driving up to Townsville on Xmas day, to visit with my brothers family. So it didn't seem worth the effort as I would have had to take it down before leaving.

Lovely tree Christie! Not going to put mine up, it is the uglist tree that we have ever had, Charlie Browns turned out pretty, but this one can not be helped at all. Mark has no taste for picking out pretty ones. One year it was fatter than it was tall and this year I can look through it and see right out the window. I'm a sucker because I always give in to him, but must say he does know that I'm not happy!LOL

Very pretty tree, Christie! Not going to put mine back up - first, I caught a stomach bug, and now I have a stiff neck. And as the kittens bring the tree down every time... they have a lot of fun with it, but they can play just as well with a couple of branches. Might save me some decorations for next year, LOL!

Mel, I can't tell you how cold it is here. I haven't seen this much snow in Britain since I was a little girl and we are having temperatures of -20, which is about 20 degrees lower than usual. We are just not prepared for it, so the transport is a mess and getting around is really difficult. My heating isn't very effective so I feel permanently cold. Thankfully I have plenty of hot water bottles and a couple of cats to keep me warm, lol.

That's why I have an artificial tree, Janet. I know that it will fit in my living room and look good

Very beautifully decorated, Christie! I bet Poppy loves the pretty ornaments on the tree, too!
