O Christmas Tree

Wow, that video was amazing. I think I've seen something like that before. I would show it to my family, but knowing them, they'll try to duplicate it, and it won't be pretty. But actually, my favorite part of Christmas decorations aren't the lights on the houses, even though they can get to be pretty entertaining... Actually, what I really look forward to seeing every year are the differnt ways Christmas trees are decorated. I'm especially fond of how the tree at my mom's house looks every year. It's absolutely stunning, and something about it makes you want to curl up by a cozy fire place with some hot chocolate watching some old cheesy Christmas movie. It's an older tree, older than I am, and yes, some of the branches HAVE fallen off, and yes, we have just gotten BIGGER ornaments to fill in the gaps! The tree is full of cherubs, snowmen, gold, crimson, ribbon, and of course some of the ornaments my sister and I had made in the third grade... But its just a beautiful tree, and we have a lovely vintage star to put on top... I love our tree. Maybe that's just because that's how it always is, thanks to Mom's great eye for decorations and design...

I also love how Mamaw's tree is decorated, who is my mother's mom... So I guess that's where she got it from??

I don't know, but I hope I inherit the decorations, or at least a good enough eye to make my tree look as beautiful... and even if I don't, I'll look back at the tree mom decorated and just... smile because it happened...
