Ooo Christmas tree...

Ah yes, we were missing yesterday. But yesterday was a real busy day. Crawling through the under-the-stairs storage, cleaning up, assembling... all in the name of... Christmas tree.
Yes indeed. It's already December (so this Mama 'realised' on Sunday night, right after a looong weekend of vaguely wondering of things to do. Doh!).
So... yah... it's time for the Christmas tree.

Our Christmas tree is still our old, faithful, fake tree that we bought so many years back when we were still baby-less. Despite its lack of fragrance, this Mama still loves her tree.
And out of curiosity, how long does fake Christmas tree last, anyway? 5 years? 10 years? I think this one is already hitting 7th year this year.
It's made of bits of plastics and wire, which is cool because the branches are 'bend-able'. Do note the unfinished tree above, and compare it to the final result:

You see what I meant? The gaps between the branches simply disappear.
Ah ya, but of course, please do not mention the ever-the-same Christmas bobbles on the tree.
It ain't broke, so I ain't fixin' it.

In any case, like last year, Kecil is pretty much involved in the making of the making of the tree. Well... she was the one who kept asking about when I was going to put it up.
She was cheer leading while Mama braved the storage to fetch the tree.
She hung a few ornaments as well.
Then apparently she got tired and switched to playing with the tree box. Ha!

But at least she was willing to help Mama plug in the lights.

Have yet to get a good picture of the Little One with the tree, but now that it's up.... I'm sure we'll get a chance or two... eventually (even if I have to bribe her to pose on the very last day of the tree this year!).
Here's for a good holiday cheer to you as well!
