What can I say that hasn't been said before. Everyones trees look lovely and Maddy your decorations are amazing.

DH says he is going to put up the old fake Christmas treethat we have had for years just to annoy our DIL :D  It has a terrible lean on it and the top piece is broken and DIL hates it.  I have news for him, we will be having a proper tree this year even if I have to go and cut it down myself and the old one will mysteriously disappear when he is not looking.
The  man who said it can't be done should not interupt the woman doing it.

There is nothing like the smell of a real pine tree for Christmas it was about the only good thing I can remember from my childhood Christmas times. And that is why I do not "do" Christmas . But. I do love everyone else's enthusiasm.

Not a Christmas tree but some Christmas Bush - again left to fend for itself in a neglected part of land.  :(

Not my tree but a truly lovely idea, more like a work of art.
 Hopefully we will manage something nearer the time!

At least you are getting into the spirit of Christmas amongst the chaos DJ - I love it, it's so different.

Is that it's name Michele - Christmas Bush?  I've never heard or seen it before, perhaps it's only found in your neck of the woods.

Yes, Judy it's called Christmas Bush. It's all over the place here. Flowers in the summer. Have a look at WW or Coles they are selling bunches of it and the florists.

I like that tree DJ. Simple and creative.
