December Photo-A-Day - Day 14


"Christmas Tree"

When I saw today's prompt, I got annoyed temporarily. Y'all have seen our tree, so why post yet another picture? Then I remembered that I hadn't posted our little tree! I took a paint bucket I was using for storage to keep it upright as it has a finesse for falling over. The ornaments are each special on the little tree. I have my pewter Nutcracker ornaments that I got at Bailiwick last year. We also have some "stained glass" ones my Grandma and I colored when I was little. There are a couple that were various ones I must have made over the years and one I got at Church a long time ago. A few are actually meant for a mini tree and have been also used as dollhouse toys. The last one that stands out is a little beaded Scottie dog. My grandparents took some college students from China under their wing, and I received it as a gift from one of them. They spent time with them and celebrated "American" holidays with them while they were away from home. It will always stick in my memory how they loved them like their own family. 😊
