We decided to use our small artificial tree this year. It's sort of cute.
Two of my favorites:
Silver Bells - Burl Ives
Holly Jolly Christmas - Burl Ives

It's always a good Christmas when the presents are bigger than the tree!
ReplyDeleteWe had a small tree like that up until last year, that is a nice looking tree that you have. Burl Ives could sure sing good his voice always make me think of Christmas.
ReplyDeleteFine looking small tree. A Merry Christmas to you John. Nothing wrong with an artificial tree. They are safer, and not likely to bring insect life into your house. And it is cute.
ReplyDeleteHi John :) I watched Rudolph yesterday with Burl Ives as the snowman :) I was going to say what Debra said too, gifts are bigger than the tree lol...but simplicity is just as lovely and festive as a big old Christmas Vacation tree! ;)
ReplyDeleteI love Burl Ives too. If you are just having the two of you the small tree works well.
ReplyDeleteA tree is a tree. Easy to put up and take down. : )
ReplyDeleteI'd have a tree like that but my husband wouldn't, but that's fair because he's the one who sets it up :)
ReplyDeleteBurl Ives always makes me think of Christmases far in my past, because "Holly Jolly Christmas" was one of the two records my mother liked and played at Christmas time.
I think it's adorable! We had a couple of Christmases with a small tree and I was perfectly satisfied with that. This year we put up our bigger one as a celebration because we were so excited at finishing the cleaning and painting of our home! Plus everyone is coming here on Christmas day, so we're making it very festive.
ReplyDeleteOh I remember Burl Ives, loved his voice when he sang 'Cool Clear Water' or whatever it was.
ReplyDeleteThe tree is lovely.
Merry Christmas...Margaret
I think your tree looks good.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
