Christmas season once again


(Above) Our Christmas Tree Star Topper bought form Borders bookstore.

With Christmas coming around the corner again, we took out our Christmas tree to set it up and decoarate it. We are having Gayle's parents and sister over for Christmas this year during Christmas Eve and going over to Eugin's mom's place for Christmas Lunch. Setting up Christmas tree is always a sign that it's the holidays and a good break from work and also a good meal and present exchanges. Gayle is preparing to cook a good lamb dinner for that Christmas Eve.Our tree is based on a white christmas theme with a white leaf tree. Decor in line with white is blue and silver trimmings.
We had fun putting up the tree and of course, the little girl Shayna was curious and kept running around to fuss about the tree. She's gotten used to our Kissing Mickey and Minnie which we put at the base of the tree with a overhanging mistletoe and stopped trying to get a bite at them.

Most of the decor, we got from Carrefour and IKEA which stock value for money and wide variety of stuff.
