It's snowing out tonite - which is just perfect because today was the day we decided to put up Christmas decorations and the tree. Boy, we have a LOT of stuff!!! When going through all the boxes, I realized just how many decorations we have accumulated over the years. We probably only put up a third of what we have - much was left in the boxes.
The tree was easy - several years ago we bought an artificial tree. We always had a real tree, but Rick was starting to tire of the chore of dragging a tree home and wrestling it into the tree stand - so when we spotted an artificial tree at Scott's Hardware (a really neat, old fashioned hardware store in Renfrew) that we both liked, we bought it and have been using it ever since.
Other than decorating the house, we had a fairly quiet weekend. We plan to stay out of the stores during peak (weekend) hours if possible. I don't have much on the go tomorow, so that will likely be a good time to shop!
As promised, I have Christmas cat pictures! The first one is Buddy having a cat-nap - I took this one last Christmas actually - I still like it! And Buddy (again) taken today while he was investigating the decorations on the bookshelp. And a rather out-of-focus one of Nibbles in her Christmas outfit. She was so good to wear it without any fuss - the others all freak out and runaway (what's wrong with them!!!!!!?????)
