Here's the stylin' Santa who showed up at my aunt's nursing home earlier this month.
A weeping specimen tree all decked out for the holidays -- one of the visual delights of the Dow Gardens Christmas walk this year. For any readers in Michigan, this is a great holiday excursion; we estimated we walked about a mile and a half, enjoying an assortment of lighted garden features and musicians from local musical groups and churches stationed along the way. The path wends through the extensive gardens, into the Conservatory and winds up in a barn turned into a cozy warming house with cocoa.
A glimpse of our beautiful tree at Cold Comfort Cottage. I have very nearly, but not quite, reached the load limit of ornaments. 
Just two items from my enormous pile of swag. Very appropriate, I think.
The LutheranChik family creche -- down to one original sheep, but otherwise still going strong after 50 years. 
Cassie lapsed into a Christmas coma after getting all her new toys. (Mollie spent the night goofing on catnip, then retired shortly after the rest of us got up.)

Merry Christmaqs to you and FT!
It sounds like your Christmas was less than boring. Thanks for sharing your photo of your Christmas tree. I was in the presence of a true Christmas tree for maybe about 20 minutes this year, and it's good to see other people's. :) Peace to you as we await the coming year!
oh, love the pics. Our dog is doing this right now!
