Decorating a Christmas tree

Hi aunty,

Even i have christian friends, During christmas time i go to there home to wish them. THere house will be of festive mood with the decorations and celebrations.
Its a feast to my eyes to see the dolls arranged in there home and the decorated christmas tree.
I dont decorate the christmas tree.

My Christian neighbours keep Christmas tree of medium size. Colour lights are put on the tree. Colourful, glittering stars are hung here and there. Small Santa Clause dolls are tied to the tree. In the middle of the night, they keep the children's gifts under the tree and the children will see them on the morning of the Christmas Day and jump with happiness. We can here noises of their children shouting and jumping for the gifts.

When Christmas is approaching, we can see some color lights from the Christmas trees through some windows and every shops will put up Christmas trees and yes, it will change the atmosphere immediately. I once worked in a hotel, which was attached with a huge shopping mall. The mall management has actually asked all the vendors to put up Christmas trees and decorate their shops. So, everywhere we went was so full of Christmas decorations. I just loved it!

Normally at home, I will be the one who will decorate the tree assisted by my hubby and nephews. This year I will still use the old decorations because they still look new, but I have been thinking of changing the theme colors. It depends because I am still planning and hope everything goes well.

Lol i am hindu but i have many christian friends, my wife my kids too have friends, we honor all religion . I dont observe christmas but we exchange gifts with them.
Thank you so much for starting this nice discussion here. keep sharing, happy posting, have a great day, cheers

I always make sure that my grandmother's homemade ornaments are put up on the tree first because it makes me feel like she is still with me. Then I proceed to put the rest of the ornaments on. I also put up my ceramic houses I have painted as well as my wreaths. I go all out when I decorate the house. I have three trees that I put up each year as well as my two Santa Claus's.
