Oh! Christmas Tree Oh! Christmas Tree. . .


It's Thanksgiving/Turkey/Duck Day!!!!

Melvin was just a tad too eager for the advent of the Christmas season and so he set up his 7.5 ft Christmas tree last night- at 11pm, no less. Luckily, we were able to stop him from decorating it in the wee hours of Thanksgiving morning. Despite it being three years
old, the tree is still quite full and bountiful, as you can see! Isn't it beautiful??!?!? Yes, it is! Magnificent and majestic! Doesn't it make you jealous?!?!? Hmmm?



Anyway. . .the Christmas Tree-decorating nutty took over as soon as the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade was over! Argh!!!!

Three hours later. . .










The tree is finally decorated according to Melvin's exacting requirements and standards. And it looks pretty darn good, too! Multi-colored lights are the best :-) It was difficult getting the lights, garland and beads evenly placed, but Melvin finally gave the nod of approval. Phew!




The next thing on the hit parade was to set up the Christmas Village. There is a ski lift, Santa toy shop, Pharmacy and Shopping Center. Everything was set up in time for the Thanksgiving dinner, and looked very festive at night!!
