  I wanted to be crazy creative for the last day of the photo challenge - but I got noth'in.  So, since I've been teased so much about how many lights I have on my Christmas tree - except by the Jensen's who claim to have 1 more than me - I am posting the full picture of my tree.  For those of you who think we don't know how to hang decorations on a tree we meant to have the bottom bare because our 1 1/2 year old destroys everything he touches.  Even as I write this he is body slamming Santa by the front door.  As an added bonus I'm posting a couple of shots of my favorite balls as well - errr - Christmas balls :)  The first is obviously 1 of my 8 Edmonton Oiler balls.  No Christmas tree is complete without the Oilers.  I also have an Edmonton Oiler hanging air freshener which has hung on the tree for years, more of a joke that got carried away than anything else, but I'm not posting a pic because Velvet will rage on me for looking welfare.  Not that there is anything wrong with being welfare - Velvet just likes to rage.  The second ball is crazy old - been around my entire life - in fact it's so old my mom's not even sure how old it is.  It's probably from the old country, though not sure what country that would be cause I'm pretty sure I'm Canadian.
  So that's it.  My Christmas tree with 1450 lights, and 2 balls.  Merry Christmas!!

Cheers,
