tree decorating is one of my favourite holiday activities, polishing ornaments and hanging them just so. my boys let me decorate as i wish, it's always been that way - well, except when kai was littler and i followed his lead, mostly.
she & him christmas music playing. drinking tea. then sitting back and enjoying our tree in all of her glory.
this year, i introduced new baubles - black, white and grey. but it wasn't enough, it was lacking. kai, too, declared it lack lustre. so, i added a few of our old baubles, some animals - cat, reindeer, dala horse to name a few - and, of course, santa too. throw in a few scandi hearts, it's now just right.
we love our tree, mixing the new and old, past and present. it was a surprise, in the good kind of way.
happy merry-making this week, it's christmas on sunday!
