The tree is up.
We always decorate for Christmas since December, 1. The Nativity is done too but, as the tree, it has a lot to improve.
Later: I just want to share a comment I made at Mountain Moma about the spirit of Christmas at her post Simple Joys of the Season.
I wish I had snow here. We only have it in the North so, no chance for me. Some 2 or 3 years ago it snowed in Lisbon – Sintra belongs to Lisbon – and it was such a hapiness. The television programs stoped to announce that!I like Christmas so much. As here there’s no Thanksgiving, I dream about Christmas since October. Well, ok, since September but stronger since the end of October. In the day 1 we put the tree up and do the Nativity. Then everyday we improve the decorations and put the garland on the door. I wrap the presents – whatever the number, that doesn’t matter, and make lists. I plan and dream. It’s my favorite time of the year.

Hooray for having your tree up! We don't have ours in, as yet. I guess we do our decorating, "in fits and starts," as we say. :-))))
Thanks for the lovely comment Paula, I enjoyed it! My tree is up as well, but alas I have boxes everywhere. My husband shook his head at me last night and said, "you and your Christmas!".
I really like your pine cones. Such a nice tree!
You must be delighted we are into December and your celebrations have started. Enjoy decorating and dreaming of snow, we have had a few flakes so far but nothing serious.
I love this time of the year as well. And your tree looks really nice.
Hello, thank you so much for stopping by my Bunny Cottage for a visit. It meant a lot to me. Your tree is very pretty! I love the way you are decorating and getting ready to celebrate the birth of our Savior. Blessings to you! Vicki
