2005 Christmas tree

YIPPEE, our Xmas tree has arrived. This is the first year we have had a real tree, it smells great!

We went to one of the Xmas markets on Sunday, and the boys chose 2 special decorations each. Cameron put his reindeer up straight away! Cameron has a cold today, so he stayed home.

Cameron and I waited very patiently until Phil and Alexander came home before we put anymore decorations on!


We got all the decorations out. What fun! Each year the boys choose a couple of Xmas decorations that they like and they have started to get a great collection of decorations over the years. 














This year Alexander chose Santa on an aeroplane, and Santa in a helicopter. Cameron chose Santa and a Snowmen on a shooting star, and a gold reindeer. The boys chose a Santa in a hot air balloon for Phil, and I found a sewing machine Xmas decoration! 

We are not going to follow the German tradition of lighting real candles on the tree, that just sounds too dangerous, although me German friends insists I have to do it that way....Sorry Ingrid!!
