Tree Trimmings.

The weather hasn't been cooperating for photos of my tree.  I just snapped a few today.





Here's an old favourite from my childhood. It's getting tarnished but who cares?


I got this one for Mr LC a few years ago.



I love these birds.


Daughter #1 crafted Mr LC's coat of arms many years ago.


Here's the real one.



Another old dear.

Got to go.  It's a one dog night. Brrr...

Oh, cute! Don't hang that puppy on the tree. I do like your old decorations. We had ones similar when I was v. little.

I just now noticed you have one-less-than-100 followers! Yay!

I wonder if this comment will prompt anyone reading to become your 100th follower ... you deserve it and so do they! Great blog.

Emma is wearing Baby Boy's sweater... I'm surprised you let Daughter #1 put it on her!

Pamela: I was out of the room when your sister cooked this up with Dad.

MMMC: Don't worry, that dog is going nowhere!

I assume Pam let you publish that photo, she didn't reply to the email I sent her. Hope she's not embarrassed that J got so hairy so fast, lol!

I love your old ornaments... but the dog is even cuter! Hope you're not going to try putting something similar on Millie!

Your decorations are beautiful and you did a great job photographing them. I think your dog stole the show though. ;-)

You do have the most beautiful ornaments. Can't believe that they have survived from your childhood (not that it was that long ago). Love the birds too, and the dog :)

How did the hostess of Broken Item of the Week keep those treasures so long!? I remember those lovely glass ones with inverted bits. They must have been all the rage once.
