Oh Christmas Tree!

One of my favorite things to do in the holiday season is to pick out our Christmas tree with the family.  The smell of a fresh-cut fir tree and the sight of hundreds of green beautifully shaped trees brings out the joy at the end of each year.  It reminds me of the love and comfort our family shares when we are all together.

After searching for the perfect tree...





We finally found one.  Here is a picture of my tree and ornaments. 




Here is Jess' tree and ornaments.









And... this is Nel's tree and ornaments.






I hope you're enjoying the season.



When we were out shopping one day, I came across this bottle of wine.  The name made me smile, and just had to buy it.


Here's to my sweet friends!

    Oh, what gorgeous trees. I could almost smell them through the screen. ;) I love the color of your teal/aqua ornaments, love Jess's tree skirt, and love the pretty reindeer hanging from Nel's, but my favorite is that wine bottle. 3 Girls, how amazing is that?!? I would never get rid of it. :)

    All so festive! This is the first year we've tried a real tree...but we bought the kind that hardly smells! *Bummer!* Next year we know what kind to buy...and to get it early. Yours looks lovely!

    Dear Sheri, I missed you, too, and I'm so glad to be back! I love all of your gorgeous trees! Your post really got me in the Christmas mood and also reminded me I have a lot of gifts that need some wrapping. Better go and do that now! I hope you have a wonderful new week and isn't December just magical?

    Hugs, Kristin

    Sheri, your tree and ornaments are beautiful! I love the smell of the evergreen trees also, but unfortunately due to allergies, I have to get an artificial one! Happy Holidays to you!

    The trees are gorgeous Sheri :) So is your fireplace mantle in your other post...everything looks so pretty... love the quotes about family too...so true. Girl, I love the smell of Christmas trees too, our tree is faux but...I did get a real wreath and hubby just smiles every time he sees me walk by it and take a whiff...which is all the time lol! That smell is just awesome :)
    Hope you and your sweet family have a Very Merry Christmas...I had such fun catching up with your posts...thanks for stopping by my blog recently...it's always great to hear from you.
    Big hugs,

    Lovely Trees.

    All unique and yet the freedom each had in decorating them and choosing the ornaments tell so much about your loving, and encouraging each own, relationship.

    There's no time like this. Enjoy it!

    Blessed greetings,

    Teresa


    p.s. I don't like wine but I can't resist a beautiful bottle, a nice label or a meaningful name... hubby tells me he doesn't care - I buy the touching detail and he cheers ahahahah
