The tree is up and illuminated. We are putting the ornaments on this evening (Sunday) so it will soon be more than green but also enhanced with ornaments that are new and old.  Merry Christmas everyone!

To enjoy the season, I added some Halloween lights in the livingroom that are connected to the dining room accent lights and, for another year, the neon bat is in the kitchen with its own control. Happy Halloween.

Merry Christmas to all!! We’re planning on putting up the tree this weekend (12/14) but that will depend on the weather. They are talking snow and temps in the 20s which, for here, is severe weather — this town shuts down for a few flakes. But Christmas is still on the way and that makes [...]

Halloween is behind us for another year. With the kids off at college, we handed out treats without the high energy children in the house creates.

The family will be over today to decorate the tree. It looks a lot better with lights on it. Speaking of lights, the Christmas Tree Angel and the garland lights can now be turned on and off. Remember to press ‘reload’ to see a new picture (another thing I might fix this week). Merry Christmas [...]

The tree is not going up today. Family can’t come over to decorate the tree so the plan is now to put up the tree sometime this week and then have a big gathering next Saturday to decorate it. Stop on by and turn the angel on and off.

Looks like Sunday will be the day for putting up the Christmas tree and doing the Christmas cards. It’s almost here.

It’s time for Christmas and so it’s time for me to get ChristmasCam working. You can again turn the lights on and off and, soon, there will be a Christmas tree to view. Merry Christmas to you all!

This evening (Saturday) will be a family game night. That will be the last gathering for the tree which will come down on Sunday. Then it’s back to normal.

It’s sad then the Christmas tree stops taking water. At first a new Christmas tree will need to be watered twice a day. But, a little before Christmas, they slow down. It’s a little sad. One sign that Christmas will be over soon.
