Christmas is starting to fall apart!!

this little trail .....
is a result of this not-so-little tree
that
met
it's
demise
today.
All in all .... the tree was in pretty good shape (I think we brought it home around the 10th) .... but (nearly) all good things come to an end. AND THIS CHORE is never really a fun one .... til today! My singin' buddy Smurf & I watched The Witches of Eastwick while we were stripping the tree of it's adornments. It seemed to take no time at all and bestest .... the living room looks bigger (and cleaner). Even though I am not ready to clear out the holidays completely (since some of the glam will disappear) it will mean our visit with friends are coming to an end for this time around.
It has been a really warm & enjoyable holiday, even though there were loved ones we lost this year. They WERE with us by way of traditions and stories..... but it's not quite the same of course. NOW .... time to shift into the 2011 gear. It's here, & we're hoping to make it an improvement over this past one. Time will pass and those we lost will be less in our thoughts and MORE a part of our motions & deeds!!
