I got the giggles so fiercely when hubby and I were decorating the tree over the weekend.
Greg and Geoff took over hanging the lights about 12 or 13 years ago and I got the job back this year. The memories flooded of times past playing Christmas music, baking cookies together and reminiscing about the ornaments as each were being pulled out of the box. A few tears came to the surface.
You know when you pull out the pre-boxed ornaments and there are some not ever used? Wonder why they were kept?
Right about the time I was going to tell hubby that I don't use the blue ones, he was hanging his first ornament...BLUE! I laughed so hard and asked where he has been for the last almost 32 years?
Then asked him where in our home did I decorate with blue? He grinned and began looking around...too funny, I promise he DOES live here. May I say 'typical'?
We spend all of our time in the FR but I did a little vignette in the LR.
I cannot get away from my love of hydrangeas and silver. The collection of spoons is from my travels over the years and the opera glasses from the Paris flea market.
This is the first time in a very long time that hubby joined in, he usually was happy to watch the boys and me while sipping hot chocolate and singing carols. We had a good time.
