OK every year I have a Christmas Tree Trimming party at my house. Last year we had a 9 ft tree. The year before we had a 13 ft tree. The only requirement is that you bring one ornament to put on the tree. Sorta leaving something of you behind. Nice sentiment I think.

Anyway, I think the date will be either Dec 18th Saturday or Dec 19th Sunday. If you want to come and help just let me know. I live in Van Nuys, CA and can put up about 6 people comfortably if you don't mind sharing a bed with someone.

Just a thought.

Here is what the tree looked like last year.

very beautiful Tree. We'll tomorrow is my big day scheduled at 10:00am.

Penni, that tree is GORGEOUS! What a lovely tradition. Too bad I live so far away -- I'd love to come to your party. Make sure and take pictures when it's done, okay? So I can enjoy it vicariously?

Best of luck to you tomorrow, Fran. I'll be thinking of you.

Penni-

I know I can't make it to the party, but I'd love to send an ornament for the tree. I'd love to know that there is a bandster tree out in the world sending good, joyful Karma to all of those still struggling.

I'm getting sentimental...Christmas always does it to me.

Just send me your address and I'll find a perfect ornament. Great idea, by the way!

Megan

Thats a great I dea Meagn for those who cant make it to send an ornament!

OK I agree GREAT IDEA MEGAN.

If you are interested in sending me an ornament to put on the tree then send me an email at Penni60@aol.com and I will reply with my mailing address.

The party will be on the 19th of December so I would need the ornaments by then. I can always add them later if they come after that but it would be nice to put them on that day.

One other thing please place your name somewhere on the ornament so I know who it is from. This is so exciting. I will post a pic of everyone's ornament once it is on the tree. Then I will post a pic of the whole tree once decorated. I am all verklempt now. So emotional. LOL!!!!

If you guys wanna send an ornament then get on the ball and send it off. Party is December 19th Sunday. Send me an email Penni60@aol.com and I will send you my home address.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS
