Category: Christmas-2010

There has always been a rule in our house that no Christmas decorations go up until after my birthday (which is on the 5th). I think that is because my parents never wanted to associate my birthday with Christmas even though its so close.

After the 5th though its fair game and one of the first things that is put up is this ceramic tree that my husbands mother painted in 1979. Sadly, shortly after that she passed away. So this is a special holiday decoration that my husband treasures and we always have special place to it so that we can look at it throughout the holiday season.

Michael has asked about it and we told him that he needs to be careful around this because its priceless and that his nanny made it.

Its a beautiful tree that lights up. Although you can’t really see it in this picture. Its a holiday decoration that is treasured in our house. Do you have a favorite ornament or decoration?

Welcome to Day 2 and I thought today I would share one of my all time favorite Christmas songs. Its Last Christmas by Wham. When I was looking on youtube for it I realized that several artist have redone it from Hilary Duff, Taylor Swift, Cascada and quite a few others.

Do you have an all time favorite Christmas song?

I thought that I would make my first offical Christmas post about Christmas trees. I thought I would share with you some Christmas trees I found online via google image search.

As you can see these ones are all book related.

I have to say that the first one and the last one posted is my favorites. Which one do you like?

Have you seen any another book related Chirstmas trees? If so please let me know.

Its hard to believe that we are already beginning the month of December. Where did the time go?

For the month of December I decided that from now, December 1st to December 25th all post will be Christmas related. I have a few holiday books to review so they will be appearing this month, I also plan on sharing some of my favorite holiday songs, movies, recipes and some traditions with you.

If anyone would like to make a guest appearance please let me know via the comments here or through email cindysloveofbooksarc AT gmail DOT com and I will get back to you.

Happy Holidays Everyone.
