This picture is from the night we decorated the tree- ms 12 turned to look in a box of decorations- screamed & jumped a mile- she didn’t know the kitten was in the box & she saw it move in the box out of the corner of her eye. Keeping the tree safe from these kitties has been a full time job this year. One no one has time to do- as a result we have ornaments & a few strands of lights on the floor at all times.   As always go see Janet’s pictures too!

Christmas is the season for kindling the fire of hospitality in the hall, the genial flame of charity in the heart.  ~Washington Irving
