Is this Christmas 2
As you can see from the photo we bought our Christmas tree on the weekend and have taken advantage of the deck outside the living-room doors to place it in a sort of lurking position, just outside the room. At this time of year we have the doors open most of the time anyway as actually enjoy being eaten alive by mosquitoes.
I think as a reaction to all the European Christmasses we've had lately I've really been unable to get into traditional decorations so opted instead for just the plain outdoor lights for the tree and a star left in the shed by the previous owners. Just to confuse things even further I became obsessed with some little paper lanterns from one of the el-cheapo stores in Sydney Rd and have decided to thow them into the mix as well. They are particularly fetching in the Japanese Maple in the back-yard.
Together with the stars Jacob and I painted and grassed there is certainly an air-of-something about the place. Not quite sure what but definitely something......
