Or your Menorah, or whatever festive decor you like!

Here's our Christmas tree. :)

Kitty climbed in the branches and broke all the bulbs.

Colorfully Christmasy, Mel.   Green and red, blue and gold.

Nice cozy atmosphere.  Santa might want to take a snooze under it.  :)


Inviting.  Just needs cookies and milk.

Pretty trees so far. We just got home from back to back trips. I suspect Joe will have a tree by mid day tomorrow!

Lovely trees! :)

We're not going to have a tree this year, either... :( Couldn't persuade my hubby nor my mother to agree for a tree... blast.

But I've got a feeling that next year will be a different story... ;) I'm already making a plan. ;)

PF Christmas time to all,
Sanna

I believe you posted something very similar last year Sanna.  That were disappointed that your MOTHER wouldn't allow you to have a tree.

Not trying to stir up anything here...but LORD...you are a married woman now Sanna.  Why does your Mother have the power over you to say you will or will not have a Christmas tree???????????????????

Your husband not wanting to let you have a tree..hmmm.  How about what YOU   want ??? Like I said, not trying to stir up anything but this made me angry ( For you) last year and this year I'm just seeing some red flags.

You indicated YOU wanted a tree.  Go get one girl.  Put some lights on it, decorate it with Finnish ornaments, pine cones, berries, popcorn strings and have fun with it.  Turn on some Christmas music while you decorate.  Have some cider or hot chocolate when you're done. 

Sanna you deserve to have what you want too, you know?  If this hurt any of them, that would be a different story.  A Christmas tree has never hurt anyone.

Stick up for yourself sweetie.  Obviously no one else will if YOU don't.  I'm counting on you Sanna, don't let yourself down.  YOU HEAR ME????????????   :-*

Beautiful trees!  And Sanna, I completely agree with Linda!  Start doing things YOU like.  You deserve it as much as anybody else and to heck with what they think! :-*

Linda & Mel,

My mother's house is the place where we'll be celebrating Christmas, so that's the place to put the tree. It is not about controlling me, but about her controlling her own house.

She believes that there's no room for a tree when 10 people come over... I disagree, but it's her house.

And my husband is not that much of a Christmas person - what comes to decorating the house. Believe me, I've done my part placing all sorts of Christmas decorations all around our home!

I do admit that our living room is a bit busy, with a tree it would not work. But one day we'll be living in a bigger place, so then... Nothing can stop me. I just need to decide: plastic or real Christmas tree...?  ;)

Thank you for taking care of me, but I'm fine. I just didn't think ahead with this flat; our balcony is waaay too small for a tree...

Sanna :)

Nummu:  I can't sleep.

Lumi:      Me neither.  I'm so excited about Santa Claus coming.

Nummu:  No, I mean these damn blinking lights hung all around.  I feel like Alvin and the Chipmunks meeting the ghost of Christmas present.

Lumi:      Oh but Santa's brings us gifts with his eight tiny reindeer.

Nummu:  We don't have a tree.  That's where he puts his presents.

Lumi:      But I've been good and wrote Santa a letter.  My stocking is hung, he won't forget me.

Nummu:  Gotta have a tree.  It's too small in here.
                     
Lumi:      Don't they have little trees?  Even a twig!  Oh, no.  I believed Santa would come.

Nummu:  Nah, kid.  That's only in fairy tales.  Now go to sleep.

Lumi:   Nummu.  Are we too small for Santa to think about?

Nummu:  Well, I heard about this girl from Whoville named Cindy Lou and a kid named Charlie Brown.  They had a nice Christmas.

But they had a tree.

Just get one like mine. Takes up little room and low maintenance.

Beautiful trees, guys.  Thanks for sharing them.

Pretty trees  :)

I'll have to take a pic of my tree and post it.  I admit, I do have a serious problem with Christmas ornaments.  It took 3 days to put them all on.  John tied the tree top to the window sill so it wouldn't topple over  ;D

Joe was at breakfast the other day with his buddies and mentioned we got our tree up. One of them shared that he and his wife don't bother. Joe hassled him about how good it looks, how nice it makes the house smell, etc.

So the guys sent him a picture later saying, ok I put up the stupid tree and it smells great. He hung an air freshener that is green and in the shape of a tree in his house.

Pitiful!

Pitiful is right.   Sheesh!   His namje wouldn't be scrooge, would it?    I say Bah-humbugg to his air freshener.

Sanna, I guess I understand, but really don't see the harm in even putting up a 2 foot tree.  Either way, I am glad you have some decor in your home to give you some Christmas cheer. :)

Kevin, seriously dude, start writing screenplays!!!

Jackie, Macy's!! ;)

Kevin,

You seem to have Lumi ja Nuppu all figured out! ;D (Not that we would ever believe that Lumi is the nice one, she's actually quite naughty little guinea pig, but anyway. ;))

They don't know it yet, but I bought them a special gift this year: a tunnel they CAN eat. It's made of hay and eatable herbs. :)

If we'd have our own Christmas tree, I'd cut a few small branches and give them to Lumi and Nuppu. Guinea pigs love those! :)

By the way, I sort of have a tree now. It belongs to our building and stands proudly outside, next to our building. That's a gift to all of us residents from our building manager. We get that every year. It doesn't have any ornaments, just the fairy lights. But looks nice during the dark hours of the day. And let's face it: this time of the year, it's most of the time! ;D

And I did make a deal with my husband: when we live in that bigger place (if I know my husband, we're moving around this time next year), we will have that Christmas tree in our home. :)

Sanna

Sanna, i'm glad to hear it.  Like Mel....I guess I understand.  If your Mother has the room, I do not understand that however.  A tiny little tree with twinkely lights, a few ornaments...o.k. I will shut up now.

Nuppu:  Christmas card?


Lumi:   Uh, no.  It's from Santa.  He did a background check.


Nuppu:  "Makin' his list, checking it twice..."
Wha'd ya think, it's only a merry jingle and those are just words?


Lumi:   Who told him?


Nuppu:  He's got elves, they're down with mischief.  Your "BAD to the bone" tattoo, sneaking the Mop'n Glow to stand your fur into a mohawk, and your cell phone bill!    What up?


Lumi:   All I asked Santa for was to go on spring break with Kid Rock.


Nuppu:  Well, before he puts THAT under a tree...


Lumi:    People don't accept the real me!


Nuppu:  I hope not, those whiney tantrums... damn, I need a camera.   
Ah who knows, they found a wonder cure from moldy bread.


Lumi:    So you think our tree would've been empty anyway?


Nuppu:  Nah, Santa knows kids.   He wants it to be a happy time. 


Lumi:    I guess I'm on thin ice now.


Nuppu:  Well, maybe somebody up there likes us.


Lumi:    Hey, you're actually pretty cool, Nuppu.

                    You got a cigarette?

Kevin,

How did you know that Lumi has a mohawk every time she falls asleep inside the tiny wooden tunnel...?

She has long fur, so every time she sleeps in the wooden tunnel, part of her fur remains outside of the tunnel and when she comes out, the result is a mohawk for a while.

I do agree: time to write comedies! :)

Sanna :)
