Take one tree .....

First Find a tree...

1. Go to local farm to search for tree



2. Select tree from multitudes...



3. Wait patiently for tree to arrive.



4.Make choice and pay for tree.



5. Take tree home and search for baubles.



6. Decorate tree... or not ... in Pickle's case.



7. Resist all temptation to raid tree for chocolate just hung from branches.



8. FAIL !

Lookin' lovely.........and isn't that what choccie decorations are for ;). We're a bit depleted here too as 'the boyz' have discovered that if they box the trees everything falls off (then they bat the decs under cupboards etc where I can't reach)...x

Hi Michele, did you get your tree yesterday, it was the perfect day, cold! What sort of tree is it, one which doesn't shed the needles by the looks? I think the image of Pickles waiting for the tree was a great one to capture and what is it about Pickles and boxes? Do you put many baubles on your tree, or is Pickles one of those cats that will sit fishing for them with his paw? x

Hi again Michele, coming back to you in my other guise. I can't believe I forgot to say how I very much like your tree and lovely decorations. That Pickles is such a distraction! On closer inspection I notice you don't have many baubles on the bottom branches of your tree, I wonder why? x

The tree looks gorgeous - and I don't believe you stole those chocs... haven't you heard of the Christmas Fairy? She's a minx with confectionary!!!!! (has already been to ours and stolen every last chocolate coin....)

What a lovely tree - it looks great standing by the grandfather clock too. Very festive!

Beautiful tree and beautiful cat too. Looks like he could get up to some real mischief. Ah well, that's exactly what pets are for, causing havoc and mayhem and knowing they will get away with it!
Hugs,

Oh dear we haven't even got ours yet it's usually a rush job to get one in time for the traditional decking of the tree on Christmas Eve because I'm so badly organized!

The picture of your cat waiting for the tree cracked me up. What a cute kitty. I have to kitties, but they both live with my dad. My husband will only allow me one furry animal until we get a bigger place, so I chose my dog. I hear you about sniffing out the chocolate! Your tree is lovely and I bet it smells wonderful.

I would love to go back to Bath one day. The architecture is amazing. My husband and I loved it. We took tons of pictures and lots of video. I wanted to ask, have you ever eaten at Sally Luns Buns?

Your tree looks really lovely. I love the pictures of Pickles, particularly the one in the box. Smokey likes to get in empty boxes too.

I love it when cats hide in boxes
