It certainly did not look real but we were satisfied with the results. The structure of the tree is made from bamboo sticks – my husband’s idea. I merely dressed it up to give it a look that resembled a Christmas tree. There was joy in putting it up This base was used for several years until I got the present tree which was bought online. The structure is still there somewhere on the attic but I have no desire to use it now.
What is Christmas without a Christmas Tree? Putting up the tree with carols playing in the background does get us into the mood. We never had this in our culture before but it has been picked up looking around. Making typical Christmas sweets, cleaning up the place, going for choir practice, putting up the crib – these are the things that brought us into the mood in the good old days.
Till about two years ago we used to put up a crib. And that will be another post.

The Christmas tree looks fantastic. I’m already getting ready for Christmas
Christmas is one event that I thoroughly enjoy.
For me, it is the most beautiful holiday
I’m not overtaking, dear Grace …. I think it’s too soon for the Christmas atmosphere …. Christmas tree is really something special and beautiful
I need to think about it already as I always throw a part for the poor kids and seniors from an old age home
I am not sure I’ll celebrate Christmas, no I won’t decorate or put up the tree this year. It will be a quiet year if the boys don’t come home.
Christmas is one event I just have to keep up and have that party for my special guess.
Enjoy the parties. Wishing you and your guests a great time.
No, I am not ready for Christmas Hoopla yet. In fact, this may be another year where I skip it all together.
I just made my first call to fix a date for the party for the seniors from an old age home
