Decking halls and colored balls

Two trees again this year.  The front room tree has become the mature girl tree decked out in Victorian style with reds and golds. And we scored a sweet unsheared natural looking tree for the main room from a family lot near the house.  The unsheared tree was decorated in memories and adorned with ornaments of past years.  Each ornament of a time in the kids life or new adventure.  Hazel just lazed on the couch but strangely Oliver was only content when he was right in the mix.  Each passing year means fewer ornaments broken by the kids during decorating and sadly more found broken in the storage boxes.  Grace has taken over full duty of Herbie and plans to hide him in mischief each night for us to find.  Still a few items to put out of the season, the garland and the village. But having the trees up makes it feel like the season is closing in upon us.
