Debating this year how much to decorate - seems I do less each year but whatever I bring up from the basement has to be returned! The last three years or so I have just put a swag of lights on my fireplace and decorated the mantel and that is cheery without too much putting things away in order to get my Christmas things out. To add to the reasons not to go overboard is the fact that we will be going to Chicago to Norah and Chad's and be with all the family but our Hannah in Mozambique. I have a skinny little tree entirely decorated and covered in plastic in the basement but I think it will stay there again this year. If I yearn for a lighted tree, I will go down and plug it in! Just kidding, of course. However, one thing is certain, this beautiful crossstitch that my husband did lots of years ago will hang in the living room. His stitches are incredibly small and just beautiful. This is a piece to be treasured forever. (Click to enlarge)
